ADVENT & CHRISTMAS AT ST. MARY’S
Join us at St. Mary’s as we enter the Season of Advent and celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus
ADVENT REFLECTIONS
The Wednesday morning study group will again have sessions from the Living Well through Advent Living Compass series. If you cannot attend the group sessions, you can follow the daily readings by picking up a Living Compass booklet on the table in the church narthex. It has great daily readings and questions that explore your faith during this Advent season.
Date: Wednesdays at 9:30 AM (December 2, 9, 16)
Location: Chapel
CHRISTMAS CAROLING
Parish Music Director Carrie Arndorfer invites parish members and friends to join us for Christmas caroling. This is a great way to share some Advent/Christmas joy. The presence, music and warmth are always appreciated and are such wonderful gifts. We always have fun and the residents really enjoy singing along with us too. Hope you can make it! Kids are most welcome!

LONGEST NIGHT SERVICE
In the long, dark winter nights, memories of past experiences and the pain of present situations can become overwhelming. For some, the Christmas season is very difficult. The Longest Night service invites people to listen, pray and sing if they are able.
During this service we pray that you will find hope and comfort in knowing that you are not alone. We’ll also honor in a special way loved ones who’ve gone before us. All are welcome.
