Sunday Bulletin Excerpts


11 O'Clock Worship Service



The Fourth Sunday in Advent
    December 19, 1999

Thought for the Week:
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government will be upon his shoulder,
and his name will be called "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince
of Peace."  Of  the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, upon the
throne of David, and over his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with
righteousness from this forth and for evermore.  The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
                                                                                                          Isaiah 9:6-7
