1st December 2019

Welcome back to our annual Advent Calendar. We hope you enjoy the pictures, words, and videos each day. We would also love you to send us ideas and contribtions, anything that makes you feel seasonal, or Christmas decorations that you really love.

Today is Sunday 1st December, so it is Advent Sunday. We light our first candle on the Advent Crown.


Sarah is delighted with her Advent Calendar, the way that the Lindt Teddy is peeking through the door, just waiting to be eaten on 24th!


Adam is also delighted, but mainly because he gets chocolate everyday!

My Lindt Advent calendar seems to be missing 5 of its chocolates - looks they dropped out the bottom of the box during transport...

Very lovely. By contrast we (youth and leaders) ate the contents of a whole Advent calendar in 10 minutes at church last weekend as we shared what was special to us about Christmas.
