Advent For Kids

The wonderful folks at St. John’s Vancouver and our God’s Big Story team have prepared an Advent Booklet and host of materials for families.  This latest version Practicing Advent Every Year has no specific dates on it so can be used over and over again every year. Here’s how they describe it:

This book is designed for family discipleship around the table. We encourage you to move a candle ahead each day on the accompanying Advent Calendar and then read the daily Scripture and engage in the additional activities as you are able.

We have created a Spotify playlist with all the songs in the devotional. You can find it here.

The first devo (Galatians 4) should be done prior to Advent to orient your family to the season and its meaning. The calendar begins on the first Sunday in Advent.

We have also included a simple liturgy for morning and evening prayer if you would like to incorporate the readings into a structured rhythm of prayer and family worship. May these readings and resources strengthen and equip you to love and serve the Lord as you reflect on his promises this Advent season.
