Jesus - light of the world
14th December 2011
This week we shall be having our annual evening Candlelit Service. It's all about capturing the mystery and miracle of the birth of Jesus by listening to the Biblical account of what happened and enjoy singing some well loved Christmas carols in a festive ‘candlelit’ atmosphere.
Meeting in a room lit with candles is a reminder that a small amount of light can penetrate the darkness. One of Jesus’ closest friends, John, wrote about Jesus (the Word) as being like that kind of a light…
In the beginning was the one who is called the Word. The Word was with God and was truly God. From the very beginning the Word was with God. And with this Word, God created all things. Nothing was made without the Word. Everything that was created received its life from him, and his life gave light to everyone. The light keeps shining in the dark, and darkness has never put it out. John 1:1-5 The CEV Bible
