Calendar of Events for December 2024
The message of Advent is to awaken and be ready for the presence of Christ to be born - in the world and in you. This year we encourage you to slow down, unplug, make time for silence. Only then will you be able to hear the whispering of the Spirit and see the love of God hidden in plain sight, like a child in a manger.
