Practicing Advent
A liturgy, resources and colouring pages for practicing advent with your family.
As Christians, we live in an in-between time: the now and the not yet between Jesus Christ’s first and last coming. The first advent began in a manger in Bethlehem and led to Jerusalem and the cross; the second will bring judgment and all things made new.
This booklet is designed to be very flexible. You can use it once a week or every day. It’s useful for family discipleship at the dinner table or personal devotions. We’ve also designed some colouring pages for the kids (or the young at heart!). The prayers are adapted from the Anglican Book of Common Prayer. May these prayers and readings strengthen and equip you to love and serve the Lord in your busy everyday life this Advent season. Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus!
