OUR PAGEANT OF CHRISTIAN SYMBOLS

Preparing for Christmas. On December 8, St. Mark's held its first ever Chrismpn service. The congregation met for one service to explore the Chrismon tradition through readings and hymns.

The ornaments were placed on the tree during the service as we experienced the rich history of Chrismons. The youth of the Church assisted in placing the Chrismon's, during related Bible readings and hymns.

Here's what we experienced:

• Trinity - Matthew 28: 16-20 - Holy, Holy, Holy 
• Fish - Luke 9:10-17 - Break Now the Bread of Life
• Iota - Matthew 1: 18-23 - At the Name of Jesus
• Crook - John 10:11 - Savior, like a Shepherd Lead Us
• Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 - In the Cross of Christ I Glory
• Crown of Thorns - John 19:1-5 - O Sacred Head, Now Wounded
• Butterfly - Mark 16: 1-7 - Thine Is the Glory
• Lights - John 8:12 - I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light
