A unique ceremony took place when the, Sunday School pupils assisted by their teachers hung Christian symbols that they had made of white styrofoam and gold tinsel on the Christmas tree at the front of the church. The lighting of the second candle in the Advent wreath was performed by Leroy Bryan, chairman of the board of stewards. Rev. Morden's sermon was on the "Magnificat" which said the minister, is the most revolutionary document in the world, and in his opinion the first Christian hymn, as the definition of a hymn, is a poem sung in Praise of God.

Mary Mills was in charge of the service for the second Sunday in Advent and continuing with her series on "People of the Bible" based her sermon on the life of Moses. She described the many ways which God helped Moses while he was leading the children of Israel out of Egypt, and it shows us how we must learn to trust God in His spiritual leadership, said Rev. Mills.
