Too much Santa, too soon?
Take a break for Advent
My favorite [liturgical season] is Advent –
four weeks of deep spiritual contemplation
anticipating the celebration of Christmas.

Advent is a season of wonder, watching, and waiting.
And to deepen your experience of this season, we invite you to view three films featuring contemplative writer and PCUSA minister Peter Traben Haas.
These are offered to you free of charge from December 1 – January 2. (You simply create an account when you click into one of the films.) You can watch one a week for the first three Sundays of Advent (the fourth Sunday is December 24) or you can watch them all at once. You might set time aside each week to watch one of them and then spend time reflecting with someone (your partner, family, friends at church, fellowship group).
