The season of Advent begins Sunday, December 1 this year.  Advent is the beginning of the liturgical year (the church calendar) and it is a celebration of anticipating Jesus’ birth (the Incarnation, or God becoming Emmanuel, God with us) as well as a time for reflection, repentance and looking forward to when Jesus comes to earth again to remake and restore all things at the End of Days.

Our study for Advent is a challenge- a Bible reading and learning challenge, of course, which will take us through the Gospel of Luke, reading and studying one chapter a day for each of the 24 days of Advent.

It will be a wonderful journey, and all are invited to come along and dive in to the Gospel of Luke as a part of our Advent preparation and celebration of  Jesus- Emmanuel, God with us!
