Advent Opportunities

11/26/2017 by Web Admin

For this season of Advent St. James’ is offering opportunities for you to find yourself again if you get lost in the midst of the Christmas madness.

 Please come to an Advent Bible Reflection on Sunday morning between when the 9 am service ends and when the 11 am service begins. During the first three Sundays of Advent we will reflect on the Gospel reading for that day and talk about how that relates to the Advent season. We will end with a short meditation about light. No need to sign up. Just show up in the library after the 9 AM service. It will be fun!

 

 Please come to a quiet Advent service & meditation on the first 3 Sundays of Advent at 4:30 PM.  (we will not meet on the 4th Sunday of Advent as it is also Christmas Eve and first service begins at 4:30pm) We will meet in Steeves chapel for some prayer, some readings and then a guided meditation to quiet our minds and souls during this busy time of year. The service and meditation will last between 30 and 45 minutes with plenty of time to get home for any Sunday evening events.
