Wondering what’s going on during Advent and Christmas? Although inevitably Christmas will be a little different this year we still have a wonderful message of Comfort and Joy to share. Here are our plans…
Unwrapping the Gift of Christmas
Each day in Advent we will release an online video in which we retell the stories of the Bible that lead up to Jesus’s birth and hanging a special ornament on a Jesse Tree in St Michael’s. Each one will be about 5 minutes long and help to build anticipation and joy as we wait for Christmas. Decorating a Jesse Tree is a traditional way of preparing for Christmas as we explore Jesus’ family tree.
