It's the weekend after Thanksgiving, and while many members of our community were likely still resting from successful Thanksgiving meals, traveling home from family reunions, or working to make up for extra days taken off for the holiday, many also gathered at Advent today for worship and community.

Pictured left, our Sunday Singers (a more casual version of the Advent Chorale with just one rehearsal the same morning) sang a upbeat, fun tune at 11am worship.

In his sermon, Pastor Gary reconciled the Lutheran theological tenet of "grace through faith alone" with a Gospel text that focuses on the importance of our works, how we engage with the world and treat others. Listen to the full sermon below.

We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! See you next Sunday!
