FAITH IN ACTION
Worshipping – Learning – Caring

Did you know? In some Christian traditions, Advent is a longer season than the four weeks that we usually celebrate. In the 5th century, Celtic Christians started celebrating Advent on November 15th, which is 40 days before Christmas Eve. This year’s Advent devotional from Presbyterians Today is inspired by Celtic spirituality and is written by the Rev. Dr. Maureen Paterson, who was ordained in the Church of Scotland. Because of this, it starts on November 15th. Go to the Popular Links above and then to Devotionals. Or a free PDF of the devotional can be downloaded at https://www.presbyterianmission.org/resource/presbyterians-today-celtic-advent-devotional/. You are encouraged to make use of this inspiring resource as we begin the Advent and Christmas seasons!
