Come with us on an Advent Journey


Blessed are you who bear the light in unbearable times - who testify to its endurance amid the unendurable.

Blessed are you in whom the light lives, in whom the brightness blazes.  ...from a poem by Jan Richardson

Join us this December and learn how we all can be bearers of the light.
