Welcome Advent
Welcome to the 2nd in our 7-week celebration of Advent, a period of preparation mirroring the time of Lent before Easter. (theadventproject.org).
Preaching last week, our PLTS Seminarian Hallie Parkins reminded us that:
Advent time is full of waiting, of anticipation, of expectation. Advent time signals a renewed sense of hope in the world, looking towards the beginnings of God incarnate and the continued participation of God with us. Advent is when we enter into a time of deep reckoning with our own vulnerability in love.
At the Chapel, this seven-week advent is more than an experiment in subverting American protestant expectations. It is an invitation to live in a way that disconnects the commercialism of the Christmas season from the season of hope. Advent is the time to explore what it is that sustains us in times of uncertainty, where we take seriously what it means to risk love in this world. Seven weeks gives us a little more time to sit in the long conversation of love for God and love for the world.
We seek during this Advent season to sit in this long conversation of love for God and for the world. In this season, we aim to tease a sustaining Word of Grace from the weekly lessons. This morning, we find such a word in the lesson from Hebrews:
Hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for the One who has promised is faithful. Consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds, not neglecting to meet together, and encouraging one another, all the more as you see the Day approaching.
May this Word of Grace be a word of encouragement for you this week. Use it as to open your evening meal, remember it after you wake to a new morning, or say it as you crawl into bed at the end of your day. May God’s promise provoke you to risk love in this world.

Word Daniel 12:1-3
The book of Daniel is an example of
apocalyptic literature, which is full of strange
visions and symbolism. Arising during times of
great persecution, apocalyptic literature is
concerned with God’s revelation about the
end time and the coming kingdom of God,
when God will vindicate the righteous who
have been persecuted.
After Scripture is read, we respond:
Word of God. Word of Hope.
Thanks be to God.
Psalm 16: “Keep Me Safe, O God”iii
Hebrews 10:11-14 [15-18] 19-25
Images of worship and sacrifice are used
throughout Hebrews to highlight what Christ has
uniquely accomplished through his death.
Because we have received forgiveness through
Christ’s death, we live with sincere hearts by
trusting in God’s promises and encouraging love
and good works from each other.
After the Scripture is read, we respond:
Word of God. Word of Hope.
Thanks be to God.

Gospel Acclamation “O Come, O Come Emmanuel”iv
O come, O come O God of might. As to your tribes on
Sinai’s height. In an-cient times you gave the law
in cloud and ma-jes – ty and awe. Re-joice! Re-joice!
Em-man - u - el shall come to you, O Is - ra - el.
Mark 13:1-8
In the last week of his life, Jesus warned his
disciples concerning trials that were to come
upon them and upon the world. He exhorts
the listener: Do not be alarmed.
Before the gospel, the assembly responds:
The Holy Gospel according to St. Mark.
Glory to you, O Lord.
After the gospel, the assembly responds:
The Gospel of the Lord.
Praise to you O Christ!
Gospel Acclamation: O Come, O Come Emmanuel
Re-joice! Re-joice!
Em-man - u - el shall come to you, O Is - ra - el.
Sermon
7
Hymn of the Day: “O Loving Founder of the Stars”v
The Apostles Creed (Small Catechism Style)
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
What does this mean?...
I believe that God has created me together with all that exists. God has given me and still
preserves my body and soul: eyes, ears, and all limbs and senses; reason and all mental
faculties. In addition, God daily and abundantly provides shoes and clothing, food and
drink, house and farm, spouse and children, fields, livestock, and all property; along with
all the necessities and nourishment for this body and life. God protects me against all
danger and shields and preserves me from all evil. And all this is done out of pure,
fatherly, and divine goodness and mercy, without any merit or worthiness of mine at all!
For all of this I owe it to God to thank and praise, serve and obey him. This is most
certainly true.
8
I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy
Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and
was buried; he descended into hell. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into
heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living
and the dead.
What does this mean?...
I believe that Jesus Christ, true God, begotten of the Father in eternity, and also a true
human being, born of the virgin Mary, is my Lord. He has redeemed me, a lost and
condemned human being. He has purchased and freed me from all sins, from death, and
from the power of the devil, not with gold or silver but with his holy, precious blood and
with his innocent suffering and death. He has done all this in order that I may belong to
him, live under him in his kingdom, and serve him in eternal righteousness, innocence,
and blessedness, just as he is risen from the dead and lives and rules eternally. This is most
certainly true.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the
forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
What does this mean?...
I believe that by my own understanding or strength I cannot believe in Jesus Christ my Lord or come to
him, but instead the Holy Spirit has called me through the gospel, enlightened me with his gifts, made me
holy and kept me in the true faith, just as he calls, gathers, enlightens, and makes holy the whole
Christian church on earth and keeps it with Jesus Christ in the one common, true faith. Daily in this
Christian church the Holy Spirit abundantly forgives all sins—mine and those of all believers. On the last
day the Holy Spirit will raise me and all the dead and will give to me and all believers in Christ eternal
life. This is most certainly true.

Prayers of the People
We offer our prayers for the church, the world, and all people in need.
Gracious God, you create and recreate the church through the working of the Holy Spirit.
Guide us in our proclamation of the gospel. God, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
You make all things and proclaim your creation good. Protect land and water from harm,
cause all living things to thrive, and raise up stewards for the well-being of creation.
God, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
You desire peace for the whole world. Provide refuge for those in harm’s way, bring an
end to war, and instill in political leaders the love for all that comes from you.
God, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
You reveal your compassion through caregivers, advocates, and medical professionals.
Heal the sick, deliver the suffering, bind up the brokenhearted, provide shelter for the
homeless and food for the hungry. God, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
You bless us in our coming and our going, in our waking and our sleeping, and in our
daily work. Make our love and good deeds a reflection of the freedom you give us in
Christ Jesus. God, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
Here other intercessions may be offered.
You grant us everlasting life. Through the witness of your saints who now rest in the Lord,
inspire us in our lives of faithful service. God, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
Hear our prayers, spoken and silent, that we commend to you this day, trusting in your
abundant mercy, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
Offer a sign of peace to those around you.
The peace of Christ be with you always. And also with you.

Eucharist
Music During the Gathering of Gifts: “Christus factus est” (Johann Ernst Eberlin, 1750)

even to the death, death on the cross. Offering Prayer
(Assisting Minister) Savior of the nations, come.
Make your home here in us.

Great Thanksgiving
(Presiding Minister) God be with you. And also with you.
Lift up your hearts. We lift them up to our God.
Give thanks to our God most high. It is right to offer thanks and praise.
Gathering at this table,
Surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses,
It is right and salutary to remember our saints and to embrace all that is holy as together
we sing:

Abraham and Sarah bore witness to your faithfulness.
Moses and Miriam anticipated your solidarity
and acted in resistance to set your people free.
Prophets reminded people of every time and place not to lose heart
and to cling fast to the confession of hope in your justice and loving kindness.

to love our neighbors in the way you love us,

and to create hope and encouragement for the journey ahead.
He showed us what love meant the night before he died,
by taking bread, giving thanks, breaking it and
giving it away to his disciples, saying:
“Take, eat, this is my body, given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”
He showed us how to love one another
By taking a cup, giving thanks, and giving it to them saying:
“Drink this, all of you; this is my blood poured out for you
and for all people for the forgiveness of sins.
As often as you drink of this cup,
do this in remembrance of me.
Send now your Holy Spirit upon us and this bread and wine,
that through this meal we might be the body of Christ,
for the sake of the world.
Provoke us to love another and to encourage each other along the way
with a word of grace as we wait for the day approaching;
through Jesus Christ our Sovereign,
who taught his friends and disciples to pray:

Wondrous cool, thou woodland quiet, Thee a thousand times I greet; Far away from rush and riot,
Ah, thy soothing sounds are sweet. Dreaming on thy messy carpet,
Here is rest and peace; ’Tis so if, beneath thy shadows, All my cares and troubles cease.

For the good of our community announcements may be offered and a blessing is proclaimed.
(Presiding Minister) May Christ, the Sun of righteousness, shine upon you
and scatter the gloomy shadows from before your path.
Almighty God, Creator, ☩ Redeemer, and Sustainer,
bless you now and forever. Amen.
An assisting minister sends the assembly out into the world.
(Assisting Minister) Go in peace. Prepare the way of Jesus.
Thanks be to God.

In Remembrance Author Frederick Buechner has said: 'In the holy flirtation with the world, God occasionally drops a
handkerchief. These handkerchiefs are called saints.' We remember those who have died as well as
those who have made a difference in our lives and in the life of the world.
Nov 16 At the Chapel we remember the massacre by the El Salvadoran military of the six Jesuits, their housekeeper, and their housekeeper's daughter at the UCA, San Salvador. Nov-17 Elizabeth of Hungary, renewer of society, died 1231 This Hungarian princess lived her entire life in east-central Germany, and is often called Elizabeth of Thuringia. Married to a duke, she gave large sums of money, including her dowry, for relief of the poor and sick. She founded hospitals, cared for orphans, and used the royal food supplies to feed the hungry. Though she had the support of her husband, her generosity and charity did not earn her friends within the royal court. At the death of her husband, she was driven out. She joined a Franciscan order and continued her charitable work, though she suffered abuse at the hands of her confessor and spiritual guide. Her lifetime of charity is particularly remarkable when one remembers that she died at the age of twenty-four. She founded two hospitals, and many more are named for her. Nov-22 Eberhard and Emmy Arnold, renwers of the Church, died 1935 and 1980 During the Reformation, there were those who believed that Luther and Calvin did not go far enough in recovering the radical spirit of Christianity, namely in regard to the Christian attitude toward violence and personal property. These Radical Reformers stressed community, simplicity, and an uncompromising commitment to gospel nonviolence. They suffered persecution from Protestants and Catholics alike, and their spirit took root in such communities as the Hutterites and the Mennonites, which continue to this day. Eberhard and Emmy Arnold drew on this tradition centuries later in the midst of Nazi Germany. They stated a community called the Bruderhof (“house of brothers”), whose ethic was the Sermon on the Mount. Their presence was a prophetic critique of the nationalism and militarism of Nazi Germany and of the Christianity that was silent amid such evil. In November 1933, their community was taken over by the Gestapo and they fled. Eberhard died in 1935 and Emmy lived on for forty-five more years, helping to start many other communities. Their lives and writings have inspired many communities, and their witness has touched people around the world.

Welcome to the Chapel! Welcome
Please stand, sit, and kneel as you are able. Bold text in the bulletin is to be read by the
congregation. We have communion and all are welcome. Please use bike racks across
the street from the Chapel (downstairs is not secure!). Accessible bathrooms are located
downstairs (please escort children, the hall is not locked and secure). Park in the lot
across the street (pay at the machines in the garage).
New to the Chapel?
Pick up a copy of “Never been to a Lutheran service” at the entry for helpful tips. The
service is divided into four major parts, which enact the drama of faith:
• Gathering—The Holy Spirit calls us together as the people of God.
• Story/Word—God speaks to us in scripture reading, preaching, and song.
• Meal/Eucharist—God feeds us with the presence of Jesus Christ.
• Sending—God blesses us and sends us in mission to the world.
Prayer ministers
People are available to pray with you by the baptismal font at any time during the service
but especially during the Eucharist (communion). Prayers may be for you or another person
or situation about which you are concerned. If you wish to pray with one of the prayer
ministers, please make your way to the baptismal font and a prayer minister will join you
there. Anointing with oil is also available from the prayer ministers.

Notes on the Liturgy i “All Earth is Hopeful” (Toda la tierra) is an Advent hymn by Alberto Taulé (1932-2007), a Spanish Roman Catholic priest and musician, who wrote both text and tune in 1972. Born in Sabadell, Catalonia, Taulé was ordained in 1961 and studied Gregorian chant at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. In 1965, he became a professor of music, Latin, and French at the Seminario Menor of the Archdiocese of Barcelona. More than 30 of his hymns appeared in a Spanish Roman Catholic hymnal called Cantoral Litúrgico Nacional (1982). This hymn was his first to be published in the United States. The original language of the text was Catalan. Augsburg Fortress commissioned this English translation by Madeleine Forell Marshall (born 1946) for With One Voice (1995). Born in New York City, Madeleine Forell Marshall is a graduate of St. Olaf College (BA) and New York University (PhD in comparative literature). She has taught at colleges and universities from Des Moines to Puerto Rico to Chicago, Minnesota, and Southern California. She has taught literature, writing, journalism, women’s studies, theology and the sociology of religion. Retired from California Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks, where she taught since 2004, she has an abiding interest in the local grounding of theology and the practice of “lived religion,” the subject of her Founders’ Day lecture at PLTS (Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary) on September 23, 2015. She is the widow of Lutheran pastor Gary Marshall and has ten grandchildren.

iv “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” is a traditional Advent hymn that dates back to the 9th century. In the medieval Western church, seven “O” antiphons were sung in Latin at Vespers on the seven days before Christmas. Each antiphon opened with an “O” addressing the coming Messiah with a different scriptural title. This version of the English text is based on translations by John Mason Neale (1818-1866) in 1851 and Henry Sloane Coffin (1877-1954) in 1916. The plainsong melody, “Veni Emmanuel,” comes from a small 15th century “Processional” belonging to a community of French Franciscan nuns. For our observance of seven weeks of Advent, we are singing a different verse each week.
v “O Loving Founder of the Stars” (Conditor alme siderum) was an Advent chant sung in monasteries in the Middle Ages at Vespers (sunset). The earliest known manuscript comes from a monastery in Berne, Switzerland, in the 9th century, although it may have been written earlier. The Latin text shows influences from John 1:2-3 and Philippians 2:5-11, where the Creator of all things and Christ the redeemer of the world are identified as the same being. The English translation is based on a 19th-century translation by John Mason Neale (1818-1866), included in his Hymnal Noted, Part I (1851). Neale was an Anglican priest with “high church” views who translated many ancient Latin and Greek hymns into English, including another popular Advent hymn, “Veni, veni, Emmanuel” (O Come, O Come, Emmanuel). This new translation includes five of the original seven Latin verses. Older hymnals called the tune “the Ambrosian Advent hymn” on the assumption that Saint Ambrose (c. 340-397), archbishop of Milan, had written the text. However, the tune is now generally called “Conditor alme siderum” after the first words of the Latin text. The ancient plainsong melody is thought to be one of the earliest church tunes.
vi “One Lord” is a new hymn (published in 2003) with words and music by Lori True (born 1961). The text is based on Ephesians 4:1-24, the Apostle Paul’s appeal to unity (“There is one body and one Spirit, … one Lord, one faith, one baptism”). True is currently campus minister and director of liturgy and music at St. Catherine University in St. Paul, Minnesota, and associate director of “Music Ministry Alive!” In addition to presenting workshops and concerts, she has authored articles on the topics of liturgy, music, cantoring, and liturgical preparation and planning. She formerly served as a parish music and liturgy director at various communities in New Hampshire and Minnesota, and has been a faculty member for the annual Knockadoon Folk Liturgy Course in Knockadoon, Ireland.
vii “The Trumpet in the Morning” is a contemporary hymn text (published in 1998) set to a traditional American tune by Roman Catholic composer Rory Cooney (born 1952). Cooney’s text is based on Leviticus 25, Deuteronomy 15, and Joel 2. Cooney has been the director of liturgy and music ministries at St. Anne Catholic Community in Barrington, Illinois, since 1994. His published compositions span a career of songwriting that began more than 30 years ago, and continues to the present. His recording career began in 1984, and virtually all of his recordings have been collaborations with his wife, Theresa Donohoo, and Gary Daigle. He is perhaps best known for “Canticle of the Turning,” his lively paraphrase of the Magnificat set to the traditional Irish tune “Star of the County Down.” Cooney also arranged this tune, “Morning Trumpet,” by American composer B. F. (Benjamin Franklin) White (1800-1879). The tune was first published in William Walker’s wildly successful hymnal, Southern Harmony, which went through several editions and sold more than 600,000 copies in the rural South before the Civil War. White was born in South Carolina, and was the twelfth child of Robert and Mildred White. He was a composer and singing-school teacher. He is best known as the compiler of the “shape note” tunebook known as The Sacred Harp (published in 1844). White served as clerk of the Inferior Court of Harris County, Georgia, and mayor of Whitesville, Georgia. He also edited the first newspaper published in Harris County, The Organ. This newspaper printed both news stories (local and national) and musical materials (songs, minutes of singing conventions, musical debates, letters from singers, and advertisements for books). White was married to Thurza Melvina Golightly (whose sister, Amy, was married to Walker). They had nine children.
