Before the songs, before the manger, before the light breaks — there is waiting. There is yearning. There is the quiet, uneasy hope that something good is still on its way.

This resource invites you into a slow rhythm of Advent reflection: a space to listen, to notice, and to hold what is both broken and beautiful in our world.

You are invited to move through these reflections at your own pace. Engage the readings, prompts, and practices as your time and energy allow. Allow what speaks to linger with you; release what doesn’t.

We’ll gather on Zoom each week for a time of shared reflection and grounding in the week’s theme. From there, each person carries the invitation forward in their own way until we meet again.

Advent is not a countdown to Christmas. It is an invitation to dwell in the mystery of what is being born — in the world, and in us.
