November 27, 2022 Advent 1 Worship Service

We are so glad you’re joining Reformation for online worship! We hope that this time of prayer, song, and hearing the Word of God will help you to go deeper in your relationship with Jesus and grow in your love and service. Please use the buttons above to download a bulletin to help you follow along with the service.

The First Sunday of Advent begins a new church year. It’s a season when we’re called to pause and pay attention to what God is up to in our lives and in our world, so we can be prepared for Jesus to come. As Christians, we focus on Jesus coming as a baby in the manger, and at the same time, we cling to his promise to return in glory on the last day. In today’s reading from Matthew 24:36-44, Jesus instructs his followers to “keep awake” and to “be ready.” In this sermon, Pastor Paige offers spiritual practices that can help us pay attention to our relationship with our coming Savior and Lord. We don’t know when Jesus will come again, but our observance of Advent reminds us to keep watching, keep hoping, and keep trusting that he will.

This is a recording of our 8:30 service. After the service, we invite you to fill out an online response card here. Also, if you are able, we invite you to partner with us by financially supporting Reformation here. Your generosity allows us to bring the hope of Jesus to Milford and beyond. Thank you!
