Christmas Advent Service

Today was the fourth Sunday of the Christmas Advent season. Over the course of these four Sunday on board, the ship's crew has been responsible for planning and organizing the Sunday advent services. Many weeks ago, John and I were approached about leading one of the four services. Of course, we said "yes!" Our advent service was this morning and thanks to God, it was AWESOME! We were so honored to be asked to organize one of the four services. Neither of us had ever put together a church service before, so it was a great learning experience for us both. Thanks to God, everything went smoothly this morning. The praise and worship music was lively and full of energy and the sermon was deep and meaningful. We asked a few girls to perform a dance to "Breath of Heaven" and it was so beautiful. John and I MC'd the service and had so much fun doing it! Praise God for giving us this amazing opportunity to continue building our skill sets and being able to serve the ship's company and God while doing it!
