FAITHBRIDGE FAMILY & FRIENDS,
We have an exciting opportunity to minister and encourage one another during this coming Advent Season. In Advent we remember Jesus coming to earth, we anticipate Jesus’ return and focus on the gift of God’s Son to us. We will publish our own Advent Devotional Booklet with YOU being the creative authors &/or artist! It may be about Jesus being born in a stable, about your favorite CHRISTmas hymn, about your favorite person in the Bible stories connected with Jesus’ birth and God’s gift to us. Draw and write with the Holy Day (holiday) theme. Share Christmas memories. We want everyone involved!
Start Praying and thinking now, about what you would like to share to celebrate the Joy and anticipation of Advent this year so we may have this booklet ready before Advent.
FaithBridge Advent Devotional 2020 Guidelines
Draw pictures, write or type poems, memories, reflections on the Bible story of any related Characters connected with Jesus coming to earth. Some might even write about the donkey Mary rode, or the shining star, or even the Inn Keeper whose Inn was full. Use approximately 2 small/medium size paragraphs (around 200 words).
Use 8.5 X11 paper. Leave some extra margin on the left, so we can bind the papers together and not cover your words or art. At the bottom right, sign or print clearly your first & last name. For really young children we will delight in whatever marks they craft and you might hand print what they tell you the picture is and their name. Teen agers your input is also really important to us. Adults, this is not a competition—it’s a joy to encourage one another this Advent.
Turn in all work to church before or on Sunday, October 25.th. You may send digitally or hard copy. Can email to virginia@faithbridgeumc.org. Then we will arrange and print editions for everyone and have ready for pick up by Sundays, November 22 or 29th.
Starting on November 29th, we will read in our homes the same devotion each day or evening as individuals, remembering our FaithBridge Family and will be praying that our lives will be enriched by each other’s gifts as we draw near to Jesus and celebrate in our hearts. This is a new way of being together, spiritually, as we social distance.
