4ISH Midweek Advent Vespers

We are at home, wherever we gather and welcome you home for the Advent season at Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church. This sacred gathering is built to experience the Spirit’s movement in our preparation for the honoring of Christ’s birth, marking new beginnings, while keeping time for Christ’s Church. In this “new year” season, we focus on preparation through lenses of Past, Present, and Future, Peace, Joy, Love, and Faith. The stories and expressions of “God with us” (Emmanuel) are chosen by the presenters, offering an opportunity to experience preparation from perspectives other than our own.
You will be invited to move during this service, and we hope that you are comfortable enough to do so. Should you require assistance in order to participate to your fullest in this sacred space, please let a pastor know of your needs and we will ensure that your experience offers our shared value of hospitality. If you would like to lead worship during this Advent season observance, please seek out Pastors Tim, or J, Music Ministers Tonya Perry or Lucas Wickstrom.

Advent is a time of joyful waiting and anticipation for Jesus- God- who came into our world as a little child in Bethlehem, at a particular point of time in the past; who comes into our hearts and lives in the present; and who will come again in triumph and glory.
