1 Household Prayer for Advent 2017 A guide to praying at home during the Advent Season
2 Daily Prayer and Readings for Advent This simple form of daily prayer and Bible reading for Advent is a way for individuals and households to nurture faith and open their eyes and hearts to our Lord s promise in this holy season. The daily readings continue the story and theme from Sunday s reading. Some of the individual readings may be challenging in isolation, but read as part of the larger whole they tell the story of God s unfolding promise to his people. Daily readings for children from a children s bible are also suggested in this booklet. The Order of Daily Prayer for Advent (page 6-7) can be said at the kitchen table around a candle and/or an advent wreath, or quietly at one s desk over lunch, or as part of a morning or evening time of personal prayer. In addition to this daily prayer and Bible reading, we will have services of Evening Prayer at 7pm on Wednesday evenings during Advent. Also, each week Pastor Chris publishes a blogpost and a podcast reflecting on the reading for the upcoming week. Daily readings are also available on the New Joy mobile app. These spiritual practices daily prayer, weekly Evening Prayer, weekly Scripture reflection blogpost and podcast, and Sunday worship all work together as spiritual practices to nurture faith as we look in hope and expectation for our Lord s Advent among us.
