Week 1 of our Advent Series called "Not a Silent Night".  During this series we will be following Mary- her character, her life, and her experience as the mother of Jesus.  Today we begin at the last scripture reference about Mary in the New testament.  In weeks to come, we will journey backwards through Mary's life as we prepare for Christmas.

Sermon Notes:

1)  We see that Mary experienced deep grief but found hope in the resurrection

2)  Mary moves forward to share in the mission of the disciples

3)  We are given the same mission as Mary and we should fulfill it like she did.
