Advent retreat: Emmanuel, encountering the God with us (online 7 December)

£25.00

Description

“I was able to lose myself in my time with Jesus.”

“You helped me encounter God in a new way.”

“I’m very visual, and am learning that the Spirit really speaks to me through beautiful art… Leo’s lovely paintings really blessed me. The journal was beautifully presented.”

 

Advent can be an intense time of the year – the hustle and bustle of preparing for Christmas can overtake our intentions to prepare our hearts and minds for the coming of Jesus. But however busy we are, we can trust that God is with us. He is Emmanuel – the One who always with us.
Join Amy for an Advent reflection to refocus on Christ from the comfort of your home. Through three online sessions, using words and pictures, we will look at Jesus from the start, Jesus in the darkness and Jesus with us. We’ll enjoy time together as a group, and you’ll have space for your own prayer and reflection.
Together, let’s cut through the frenetic pace of the season and make space for Jesus this Advent.
