WATCHING & WAITING: The Season of Advent
WHAT IS ADVENT?
The word “Advent” means “coming.” In this season, we celebrate God’s coming to us in Jesus’ birth at Christmas, celebrate that Christ is with us now, and wait for Christ’s return.
Advent is a time of waiting and watching, a way of practicing trust in the God who was, and is, and is to come. As people who believe there is more going on than we can see, we wait and watch for the fullness of God's hope, peace, joy and love to be revealed.
Advent prays, Come, Lord Jesus!
This Advent, we join the waiting of those who were drawn into what was coming - with varying levels of understanding and awareness: the Prophets, Joseph, Mary and the Angels.
Our liturgy through Advent will be sung, and Saturdays will include Prayer Around the Cross.
