First Sunday of Advent

Do you need a break during the days of December? Do you have a few moments for fellowship and devotion? Consider joining us for all three or one of these Advent Breathers. We meet around a table to break bread and share a bowl of soup and then we offer a time for music, prayer, scripture and reflection. It takes just 60 minutes and changes the way we approach the season of Advent.
