Advent Sunday: Preparing for a Journey of Discovery

Advent is traditionally a time to prepare ourselves to celebrate a day in history: the birth of a baby named Jesus.

The season depicts Him in a manger, in Bethlehem about 2,000 years ago; but who is it we are preparing for and where is it we are looking to put Him?





The path may be steep .....




... the waters deep .....





... and the dark in need of much light .....


.... but we invite you to: put on your harness, helmet & lamp; push the boat from shore with paddle in hand; lace up your walking boots and join us on a journey of discovery.
 
For us, this year, our Advent journey will begin underground. It may not have been like that 2,000 years ago but we believe that in the darkness, of night and a cave like stable, something special emerged.
 
 Let the journey begin .....
