We will be creating an Advent Devotional again this year and are seeking folks who are interested and willing to write a devotion for one day. Writing a devotion can be a spiritually uplifting experience as can daily reading.
We are also inviting those of you who are artistically gifted to create a cover design as well as images for the body of the document.
We encourage our youth to consider submitting written entries as well as artistic expressions. God gives young people a unique perspective which can be inspiring and uplifting to the rest of us.
Below is a list of scriptures for each day in Advent. Please choose any one of the scripture passages for a given day, Please choose any one of the scripture passages for a given day.
