Everyone is invited to participate in a self-guided Advent Quiet Morning.  This guided time was put together by Meghan Mullarkey and Anna Pringle. 

Feel free to go at your own pace, skip questions that don't pertain to you, and even split it up to two mornings if that works for you.  

Introduction of your time

9am Trinity Blessing Ritual.  You will need: something to color with (colored pencils/markers/crayons), two matches, candle, blank paper.  Print out the document:The Annunciation of Mary and The Labyrinth

10am Meditation on Welcome (written and spoken by Anna Pringle, influenced by the work of Dr. Deborah Kukal)

10:30 Found Object

11:00 Christmas Candle Story - Listen to the story (written and spoken by Anna Pringle - inspired by the real story of the Christmas candle).   

Then spend time reflecting on a story of welcome in your own life. A significant time in your life that you were welcomed or welcomed someone else. 

11:30 Celtic Blessing 

May you be blessed by God in this Advent season while you await the opportunity to welcome the Christ child.
