Advent at Agape' MCC
Inspired by the vision and artistry of Jan Richardson, plan to spend the season of Advent with our Agape family. This series is rooted in the tradition of the Advent calendar – an ancient way of counting down the days to Christmas. An Advent calendar has twenty-five doors, one to be opened each day from December 1 through December 25. Behind each door, a little treat awaits us: words, wisdom, or other gifts to deepen our anticipation as we walk this well-worn and yet always new path. The doors of Advent offer ways of marking time, of practicing presence, of charting our passage into this season of expectation as we receive daily surprises along the way.
If you are not currently following our Facebook page, go and do that. Starting December 1, you will find a daily “door” to open. We hope that you will discover some treasure through those entryways to sustain and delight you as you travel.
Welcome to Advent!
Welcome through the door, and may you be blessed as you cross every threshold!
