A Simply Centered Advent: Mandalas, Candles and Prayer

Begin your Advent journey this year with creative prayer, calming candlelight, and contemplative coloring. The beauty of Advent can easily become lost amidst the busy-ness of the season. If we are not careful and intentional, the sacred invitation to “wait with bated breath” quickly becomes the cultural compulsion to “shop with stressed-out spirit.”

 Are you longing for a simpler and and more centered Advent this year?  Join us for a quiet evening of rest, renewal and the introduction to a simple Advent practice designed to help us keep Christ at the center of Christmas.  Based on her book Mandalas, Candles and Prayer, explore how the spiritual practice of lighting candles on the Advent wreath and coloring prayer mandalas can help bring hope, love, joy and peace to our journey toward the manger.
