*Hymn “God of Peace” to tune of Silent Night

words by Pastor Katy Stenta                           

God of peace, God of life

Prophesy, Give your breath

Teach us how to make dry bones dance

Reveal to us your abundance 

Be our God, evermore, Be, Our God evermore

God of peace, God of life

Dwell with us, in our breath

Make us prophets and dreamers all

Come to us, Emmanual

Come be with us Lord, Come be with us Lord

God of peace, God of life

King of Peace, Light of Light

Send to us your only son

Redeem us all, with the promised one

Jesus our savior, Jesus our Savior

Prior to that she studied both Theology and Christian Formation at Princeton Theological Seminary. She also served as an Assistant Chaplain at Trenton Psychiatric Hospital and as the Christian Educational Coordinator at Bethany Presbyterian at Bloomfield, NJ. She is an writer and is published in Enfleshed, Sermonsuite, Presbyterian's today and Outlook. She writes prayers, liturgy, poems and public theology and is pursuing her doctorate in ministry in Creative Write and Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. She enjoys working within and connecting to the community, is known to laugh a lot during service, and tells as many stories as possible. Pastor Katy loves reading Science Fiction and Fantasy, theater, arts and crafts, music, playing with children and sunshine, and continues to try to be as (w)holistically Christian as possible. "Publisher after publisher turned down A Wrinkle in Time," L'Engle wrote, "because it deals overtly with the problem of evil, and it was too difficult for children, and was it a children's or an adult's book, anyhow?" The next year it won the prestigious John Newbery Medal. Tolkien states in the foreword to The Lord of the Rings that he disliked allegories and that the story was not one.[66] Instead he preferred what he termed "applicability", the freedom of the reader to interpret the work in the light of his or her own life and times.
