The Advent season begins this Sunday, December 1st.  The Regional Youth Council invites you to journey through Advent with them.  They created an Advent devotional using the traditional themes of Advent, Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love and responded to a question for each week.

  • How or where are you finding hope in difficult and uncertain times?

  • With the busy holiday season and the stresses of everyday life, how or where are you experiencing peace?

  • How or where are you experiencing joy even when facing trials or challenges?

  • Focusing on love as a verb, how will you demonstrate Jesus-like love during Advent?

  • How or where are you experiencing light as we celebrate the birth of Jesus this year? How are you called to be light in your communities?

This devotional is written for youth and adults. The RYC has offered their experiences and thoughts as an entry point for Advent. They pray that your experience of Advent and Christmas will inspire, inform, empower, and equip you to love and serve like Jesus in the coming year.

May God bless you and keep you.
May the light of the star illumine your path.
May the spirit of Christmas be birthed within you anew.
Remember and light the path for another.
