Pat Terry, ruling elder of Trinity Presbyterian Church in West Sacramento, led today’s service, which marked the third Sunday in Advent. Her message was entitled “Run to Bethlehem.”
Crèches (manger scenes) brought by members and friends were displayed today.
Trisha Uhrhammer served as liturgist. Wendy Aiello and Kathy Frank lit the Advent candles, to which today’s traditional candle—the Candle of Joy—was added.
Hymns, accompanied by Cathy Sapunor (piano) and Manh Ong (guitar) included:
O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
O Little Town of Bethlehem
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
