Christmas has arrived! A time when people of all ages, all around the world stop to celebrate the birth of Jesus.

Advent week 4 - Joy Now and Forever

Christmas is getting closer! Everywhere we go we see Christmas. We hear Christmas. We smell Christmas. We might even feel Christmas. What have you been noticing? What brings you joy?

This week, we encourage you to take some time to think about your Christmas traditions. What Christmas traditions have been passed down to you? What new traditions have you started in recent years? Are there any new traditions that you’d like to start this year? As you feel surrounded by Christmas, we pray that you may experience joy – not just moments of joy but a long-lasting joy.

Advent week 3 - Love in Action

There are so many wonderful activities and events that people can participate in during the Christmas season – light shows, parades, concerts, carols, face painting, dinners, and MORE. It’s easy to get caught up in doing things, that we sometimes forget to take care of ourselves, OR love others.

This week we encourage you to LOVE all that Christmas offers and think about how you can actively LOVE yourself and others, during this time.
