the virtual sol cafe: What? No church for Christmas?

Well, strictly speaking, no. There was no "official"-type gathering of the sol cafe crew on Sunday, December 24, or on Christmas Day. The coffee shop where we usually gather was closed for the holidays, plus many of the sol cafe regulars have other plans with family and friends.

But in a way, we're having a lot more church since our attitude is that wherever two or three gather in his name, there God is among them. We like to call it "distributed churching"...

Wherever you were for Christmas, here are the readings from the Revised Common Lectionary for the two days:

Dec. 24 - Advent 4
Micah 5:2-5a
Luke 1:47-55 or Psalm 80:1-7
Hebrews 10:5-10
Luke 1:39-45 (46-55)

Dec. 25 - Christmas Day
Isaiah 52:7-10
Psalm 98
Hebrews 1:1-4 (5-12)
John 1:1-14
