We think of "favours" as those fun things at parties. Or when good things come our way, we consider ourselves to be favoured by God. Our Christmas wish lists might include things that will make our lives easier; we are looking for God's favour. Mary was told by an angel that she had found favour in God's eyes. But that favour did not mean she would live a life of carefree ease. God's favour was not about fame and fortune, but about grace and acceptance. On this 4th Sunday of Advent, we receive God's favour as we share the communion meal. Sunday, Dec 21, 10 a.m.
