ADVENT PRACTICES AND PRAYERS
Reverse Advent Calendar
This year we are inviting our Grace community to participate in our Reverse Advent Calendar where “Giving” instead of “getting” is the theme. You’re invited to put a non-perishable food item in a box or bag for the 24 days before Christmas, and bring your gift to those in need to church during the last week of the year to be delivered to the St. Helena food bank. If you would like to create a decorative reverse Advent calendar, supplies and examples are available at church!
Advent Wreaths
Supplies and materials for making Advent Wreaths will be available on the church patio and in the foyer.
Advent Devotional
Copies of the LIVING WELL THROUGH ADVENT devotional are available on the church patio and in the foyer. You can also download a PDF copy here, or sign up to receive the daily devotionals via email instead.
