This Saturday we will be having our Emmaus House Christmas party and also participate in an advent spiral.
Come join us at 5:30pm on Saturday at the Emmaus House for our Christmas celebration and time of community. Please feel free to bring your favorite snack or drink to share.
After the party around 6:30pm we will head over to the advent spiral. This is very similar to a labryinth if you are familiar with that. This will be an opportunity to walk through your faith journey - whether you have been journeying for a while or are just beginning. It is a time to pray and reflect amidst our brokenness.
Part of the spiral symbolizes our responsibility to help others experience more of God. As a tangible way to symbolize these relationships you can bring an object with you to be used during the spiral. A few ideas/examples...
a broken twig - to represent a broken relationship
an egg - to represent the fragility of life and how easily it is broken
a chocolate - to represent the sweetness we would have them experience from God
a soft piece of cloth - to represent the comfort of God
bread - to represent the fullness of the body of Christ.
The list could go on
We hope to see you on Saturday at 5:30 for the party and 6:30 for the advent spiral. Feel free to email with any questions you may have.
