Hi Everybody,
Advent HopeOn the First Sunday of Advent we light the candle of hope; the first of four candles on the Advent Wreath: On each of the Sundays of Advent we light one more candle - Hope, Love, Joy and Peace - then finally on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day we light the center candle; the Christ candle.

I want to encourage you to set up and advent wreath - in our house it is as simple as five candles on a little mirror with some flowers and leaves around them. Our plan is that we will light one more candle each week until Christmas and when we light those candles we'll talk about and pray about the theme of the week.
See if you can memorize this verse:
“But as for me, I watch in hope for the LORD, I
wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.”
- Micah 7:7 (I mistyped it as Micah 6:7 in the newsletter!)
Alpha Tonight 26 Nov
Tonight is the last Alpha Supper of our 2015 Alpha Course, thank you to all the participants, assistants, group leaders - and of course - the caterers. Tonight's meal is a bring and share and a celebration of what God has done in our lives.
The Story
During
the first term of next year we will begin a church wide journey through
the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. We will be using a book by Randy
Frazee and Max Lucado entitled The Story - a summary version of
the Bible in Chronological order. The story is also available in
children's editions and there is weekly small group and Sunday School material to help everyone in our church from young to old to enjoy a journey through the whole Bible.
For more information on The Story have a look at http://thestory.com/
Woman's Manyano
There will be a robing service for the Woman's Manyano this Sunday
at the Witteklip Society in Vredenberg. Please keep our Circuit
Woman's Manyano in your prayers and especially at Table View as we found
a new branch. You'll find out more about who they Manyano are and what
they do - but for now I'll share this picture - because I'm sure you'll
recognize the uniform:


I pray that you will be filled with Advent Hopefulness,
I look forward to worshiping with you this Sunday at 8, 930 and 11am.
God bless,
Gus
