Advent Worship Service
2020-12-06 10:00 - 11:00 (America/New_York) | Online Meeting, MA
We continue our virtual worship services – Virch! – which have been a weekly reunion for our church community and visitors and will continue through 2020 fall. Each meeting we have Reservoir community announcements, singing to God, a spiritual practice, and sermon.
For Advent 2020, and our sermon series “Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room,” we will visit different characters in the Christmas Story. Each December service will include a participatory aspect, scripture, sermon, and a take-away for us helped by provocative images that stir us to “prepare Him room” as we wait.
We also still make space to share life through stories and videos – our activism, service, finding life and joy, and sharing grief.
You can access our service live each Sunday morning on Zoom Webinar, with interactive congregational chat and links to weekly events. If you join later in the day or week, you can view access the recorded service on our YouTube channel, Cambridge Reservoir Church.
If you have questions, email info@reservoirchurch.org. Feel free to invite family and friends anywhere!
