Monday Night Advent Study Begins
6:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m.
TBD
Every Advent, we light candles and speak of hope as we wait for the good news that God is born. Yet, in the midst of our busy waiting, the world is not as it should be. Wars rage on, violence persists, new tragedies unfold. God’s promises are real, and God’s promised day has not yet come. This tension keeps us yearning—for a new day, a new way.
Sign up to join Pastor Heather on Monday nights beginning November 30 through December 21 at 6:30 p.m. for an hour of scripture, prayer, artwork, and meditation to help focus us on the actions we can take as we move through the night with hope for tomorrow.
Attend as many sessions as you are able. No reading required.
