Advent Resources 2024

Here’s an introduction: Some Advent resources here – use in full or dip in as you wish.

Watching and Waiting is a condensed taster version of all 4 weeks of booklets on the themes of Hope, Peace, Joy and Love that serve as handouts for a course that a friend and I have put together for our parish, consisting of four, one hour sessions.

If you reproduce anything from writer and artist Jan Richardson, a retreat leader based in Florida, she is happy to give permission provided that you acknowledge the source title and her website address (as I have done) – do look at her artwork, reflections and ‘blessings’ poems.

Michael K Marsh, a priest of the Episcopal Church in West Texas, has also kindly given permission for his reflections to be used.

There are also 4 suggested services for each week on the themes of Hope, Peace, Joy and Love’

Please pass this material on to others if you wish

Best wishes

Anne O’Connor
