Description
This suite of resources has been created by a collaborative team from across the Queensland Synod of the Uniting Church, to help congregations, communities and families celebrate Advent together intergenerationally.
Love in Action: Preparing and Nurturing the Garden of our Soul.
During season of Advent and Christmas, we will use the lectionary readings (RCL year C) to Rejoice together one and all. Each week is themed:
1. Advent One: December 1st Rejoice and SEE
2. Advent Two: December 8th Rejoice and HEAR
3. Advent Three: December 15th Rejoice and ACT
4. Advent Four: December 22nd Rejoice and FEEL
5. Christmas: December 25th Rejoice and CELEBRATE
6. Post Christmas: December 29th Rejoice and KNOW
The material has been created for the 2024 Advent & Christmas season for these dates but can be used in any year.
There are a few parts of the resource, and all can be used together to connect what happens in worship, with the ordinary, everyday parts of life.
- Â Worship Resource
Including Bible readings, themes and suggestions for prayers and activities, to help prepare worship services for the four Sundays of Advent, Christmas Day, and the Sunday after Christmas. The material is designed specifically to help give easy-to-use tools and ideas to practice and model being intergenerational in your worshipping community.
Provide this to all members of worship planning teams so they can use any of this during worship. - Media files
Including Coloring posters, background slides and a PowerPoint for use to enhance the resources.
