Tears of Joy

December 15, 2019 — Third Sunday of Advent
Rev. Anne Jernberg Scalfaro (she/her)

Returning from exile, the people rebuild the temple with tears of grief and shouts of joy. In Advent, we too hold sorrow and hope together, building a future rooted in faith.

Scripture: Ezra 1:1-4; 3:1-4, 8-13
