First Week of Advent

December 2nd, 2020

Arts and Faith:

The arts - whether literature, painting, music, or theater - touches a part of our deepest self. The arts move us, stretch us to think beyond ourselves, and transform us. This Advent, make use of the arts as a way to deepen your Advent Journey.

Hope Jar:

We wait in hope during the Advent season. Taking that theme, create a hope jar.

Materials Needed: Mason Jar, pieces of paper to write on (multi-colored).

Directions: Each day during Advent, think about what fills you with hope. Write on one (or more) of the pieces of paper whatever it is that fills you with hope. Fill the mason jar with those pieces of paper. Place the mason jar on your kitchen table or near your family creche as way to remember all of the things that give you hope.
