- Description:
- Craig S Troutman was the pastor of the Raleigh Moravian Church. The day’s date is confirmed (the rest is cut) (0:00-0:12). A hymn is played followed by a word of prayer (0:13-3:42). Craig Troutman reads part of the Christmas story from the book of Luke (3:43-5:57). He then introduces himself, greets the congregation, and announces that they will be participating in the Moravian love feast in preparation for Christmas (5:58-7:10). A hymn is played (cut) (7:11-7:13). Troutman explains the Moravian love feast with emphasis on joy and unity as a community of God (7:14-9:14). The Moravian prayer is recited before the congregation takes part in the feast (9:15-9:25). A hymn is played followed by another hymn sung by the choir (9:26-16:22). Troutman provides a brief history of the Moravian tradition of lighting candles, focusing on light coming into a world of darkness (16:23-19:28). He explains how the congregation is supposed to participate in the singing of two hymns followed by the singing of another hymn (cut) (19:29-20:26). The service closes with the reading of Isaiah 9:6 (20:27-20:56).
