    St. Timothy Lutheran Church is pleased to announce a very special German Advent Service the second Sunday in Advent, December 6, 2009. This is the third time the church is holding the service; previous services have been attended by more than 300 people from throughout Middle Tennessee. The entire Advent service will be in German; the program will be printed in German and English so that non-German-speakers may also follow along. The service will begin with the lighting of the traditional Advent wreath, and will feature readings from the Luther Bible dating back to 1545. A brief devotion will be offered on the importance of Advent as a preparation for the coming Christmas. Many beloved German Advent and Christmas hymns and songs are included in the service. The music will be performed and accompanied by organ, flute, guitar, oboe, violin, accordion, members of the church choir, Tim's Kids Children's Choir and Bell Choir. Songs include "Kling, Glockchen" (Ring, Little Bells), "Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen" (Lo, How a Rose E're Blooming), "O du frohliche, o du selige" (O How Joyfully, O How Blessedly), "O Tannenbaum" (O Christmas Tree) and of course "Stille Nacht" (Silent Night). All are invited to a reception following the service in the fellowship hall, featuring traditional Christstollen and other German baked goods, coffee, tea and hot spiced cider.
