On the fourth Sunday of Advent, Rev. Tom Are follows the Angel Gabriel, who is very busy this time of year. First Gabriel visits with Zechariah in the middle of his prayers. Then Gabriel appears to Mary and informs her that she will be the mother of Jesus. As soon as Gabriel slips away, Mary seeks out a girlfriend, her cousin Elizabeth. Mary will include Hannah in their sisterhood as well. It’s a good lesson. The life of faith is not one we live alone. We all need our people! Our scripture reading is Luke 1:39-49.
