Current Series: Magnificent Canticles: The Songs of Advent

When: November 30 – December 24, 2025

The Advent season is marked by the four Sundays leading up to Jesus’ arrival on Christmas Day. Advent is actually the beginning of the church calendar year and it represents the years of yearning for a Messiah before Jesus’ birth. The church calendar begins in the darkness and the longing of a world waiting for life to be birthed.

Advent simply means to come. And with the season of Advent comes our own invitation to simply come–to enter into this season of waiting fully present to the one who was and is and is to come.

Each week during Advent, we will be reflecting on one of the Canticles from the Gospel of Luke. You can read along with us as outlined below and we have provided additional tools that can be found here to help you move with intention through this season–not to provide another task to be done, but a chance to pause as you are able.

Let us name our longings as we wait in hopeful anticipation. Let us wonder again at how Jesus shows up in ordinary and extraordinary ways. Let us prepare Him room together.
