+ The Weather: Turning much colder along the Erie Canal. Sunny Morning. Snow showers expected.
+ Advent: "Come Quickly, Lord Jesus." This traditional prayer of the season can be understood as a declaration of the presence and power of Christ in our lives right now, right here. There are other ways to understand this prayer as well. It is hope for the future. It is living with expectation. It is a cry for help. It is a declaration of faith. What are your Advent thoughts?
