Tomorrow I start my evening reflections for Advent - similar to, and different from, what I've done in the past, not least because I don't have the facilities to create a nice 'set' in either of my new offices.  However, there will be beautiful music, a bit of Bible, and a gentle chill out time at the end of the day for anyone who wishes it.

So far potential participants extend from  Glasgow to the Isle of Wight and all stops in between!

Looking forward to it very much. 

I was first to arrive at church this morning - not even a robin had walked on the snow, it was absolutely pristine, so I snapped a couple of photos before opening the gate and crunching my way to the door!

This photo is from 2021 when, in a second lock-down Advent, we made Jesse Trees as a shared activity (well, I sent everyone a kit, it was up to them if they made one or not!).  This morning, I will be introducing the Railway Town Church to the Jesse tree, we will also ponder Jesus' family tree, and write our prayers on 'baubles' to hang on the church Christmas tree.

I am making my own Jesse Tree (or 'heresy fir' as I rather naughtily refer to it because some of the symbols owe more to tradition than scripture) and looking forward to sharing this morning.
