Advent 2025 at Good Shepherd: The Sounds of Hope and Longing
Sunday, December 21
9 am Forum – Meet Our New Bridge Pastor, Rev. Dr. Laurie Jungling.
10 am Worship – Fourth Sunday of Advent, The Sounds of Hope and Longing: Contemplative Chant and Song, Rev. Dr. Laurie Jungling preaching. This Advent, we will explore different styles of music each Sunday morning. We are calling this exploration “The Sounds of Hope and Longing.” This Sunday’s worship service will focus on Contemplative Chant and Song featuring music based on plainsong chant tunes (often ancient music composed as one unaccompanied line of melody, without a metrical rhythm) and more modern chants (repetitive songs) like those in the Taizé tradition.
Following Worship – Hospitality & Fellowship in Crary Fellowship Hall.
11:30 am – Christmas Pop-Up Pageant. All ages are invited to an Intergenerational Christmas & Pop-up Pageant following worship and fellowship time! The annual Good Shepherd Christmas Pop-Up Pageant is an unrehearsed “pop-up” presentation with participation open to everyone of all ages. Just show up, pick a character, grab a script, put on a costume, and join the fun! The pageant will also include a variety of Christmas carols so everyone in attendance can sing along and participate. We hope to have ALL generations well-represented for a joyous and festive celebration!
If you would like to participate in the pageant as a character, please meet in Room 114 immediately following worship to pick a character, grab a script, put on a costume, and receive instructions. Then we’ll move to Crary Fellowship Hall to perform the Pop-Up Pageant.
