Advent/Christmas Worship Series:
Sundays, December 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and January 5

We invite you into three Sundays of worship preparing us for advent and christmas.

As we move together in worship through Advent and Christmas we look to the Old Testament, the Gospel, and the Epistle lectionary texts to find the persistent refrain of good news!—gospel—threaded through the sacred tradition. In a world of so much bad news, we affirm and celebrate gospel. As part of that we negotiate both how to speak and receive good news—how to hear it and proclaim it within and through all the other noise—and how to speak and receive it with integrity—how to honor gospel without dismissing (denying or ignoring) the hard news and bad news within which it resounds. Part of that involves how we justify our affirmation and celebration of Scriptural promise and affirmation in lived hope beyond just sacred text.

We hope you’ll join us for Sunday School at 9:15 a.m. and worship at 10:30 a.m.

The Heart of Our Story: Our Church Covenant

Our Church Covenant guides our faith, at church and in the community.

“Trusting the we have been brought by divine grace to embrace the Lord Jesus Christ,

We now solemnly covenant with each other that God enabling us:

We will walk together in Christian love, exercising care and watchfulness over each other;

We will not forsake the assembling of ourselves for worship nor omit the disciplines of Bible study and prayer;

We will participate in each other’s joys, and will bear with tenderness and sympathy each other’s burdens and sorrows;

We will endeavor to bring up those who are under our care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord;

We will labor together as faithful stewards to support a vibrant ministry and endeavor by example and effort to lead others to Christ.

We will seek throughout life to live to the glory of Him who has called us out of darkness into His marvelous light.”

Each Communion Sunday (First Sunday of each month), we say these words as a congregation to celebrate and deepen our promise to God and to each other.

Our story, like yours, is unfolding.

Woodbrook Baptist Church is a welcoming and inclusive community of different stories, woven into a shared commitment of faith. With joy and honesty, we seek together the way of social justice, equality, and love.
