IMG_3128(Cazenovia, NY – Dec. 2015) The First Presbyterian Church in Cazenovia will celebrate the fourth and final Sunday of the Advent Season Dec. 20 at its morning worship service at 10 a.m. The Candles representing the Wonder of the Season, the Wonder of the Promise, the Wonder of the Message and the Wonder of Hope will be lit on the Advent wreath followed by a litany from the congregation and a choral response from the Senior Choir.

The public is invited.

The service will feature a traditional Christmas Pageant titled “The Nativity” by Kidsinco.com. The pageant features a glowing Gabriel, Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem, shepherds watching over their flocks, wise men following that star in the East, multitudes of angels singing praises, and of course the baby Jesus laying in the manger.

The Rev. Dr. Ginny Smith will be leading the service. Smith is retired after 33 years of ordained ministry in the Presbyterian Church, having served most recently as the Associate Executive Presbyter for Ministry in the Chicago Presbytery.  She received her Master of Divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary, Princeton, NJ and her Doctor of Ministry degree from McCormick Theological Seminary, Chicago, Ill.  She is currently on the staff at the Spiritual Renewal Center in Syracuse as a spiritual director and workshop leader.

Child Care is available during the service.
