Family Advent Bags (A gift for you!)
As we are now in the Advent season, this is a wonderful time to gather your family to reflect on the true meaning of our coming Christmas, and the arrival of a Savior. Children's Ministry is providing a 'Family Advent Bag' for elementary families and grandparents....you can pick them up in the office or atrium, M-Th 8a-4pm, or in-person Sundays. (If you need them to be curbside pickup, just text Tara at 571-330-9831. Call the church office first to make arrangements for one to be ready upon your arrival).
The Family Advent Bags contain:
*A Thrill of Hope:Celebrating Advent at Home book
(you will love this...devotionals, recipes, and traditions for your family!)
*2 colorful Advent crafts for your children
*My Thankful Christmas Tree daily devotional cards and project
*Random Acts of Kindness cards and idea list for your neighbors & friends
*Happy Birthday Jesus Nativity Sticker Set for Christmas Eve

Advent Blessings!

Advent: A Savior is coming!
What will your holiday season look like this year? How can we make time to, really, enter into this season of waiting and preparation? How might we turn this coming season into something to remember fondly in years to come? How do we reach out in a time when social distancing and other hindrances seem to get in the way? We have gathered some suggestions and some resources we hope will help.
