대림절(Advent) Week 1, 성찬식

Week 1: Hope

We light this first candle to pray for hope.

We pray for ourselves and for everyone. We ask that our hope will be fixed on God and that God will inspire us to hope for good things.

We pray for everyone who feels that their hope has gone. May they find a new hope that shines like this candle flame.

Lord Jesus Christ, hope of our hearts and hope for the world, come close to us this Advent.

Amen
