4. A short Bible Reading YPD Form Prayers
The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.John

5. YPD Form Prayers A bit of unpacking…
Advent is a time of darkness – its dark getting up, its dark coming to school, its dark going home – its just dark and miserable all day.

Did he feel that Christmas, even in 1955, was all about commercialism, and that we had missed the point of it? The truth is, that Jesus came to get us right with God, and to get the world back on it’s axis – the fact is, we’ve ignored that and done our own things and have accepted the gift – the beauty and complexity of our world, and have ignored the giver – God, the creator of all things. Lets try to remember this year, just who is the reason for the season

7. Prayer YPD Form Prayers
Thank you Jesus for coming to earth as a baby all those years ago, to help restore our faith in God. Maybe its time that you came back again to remind us what its all about? Amen.

8. The Lord’s Prayer YPD Form Prayers
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
