2025 Advent Reflection Booklet

We need you! Consider yourself invited to join in creating our 2025 Advent Reflections Booklet—by community and for community! This is the 17th year that St. Anne's has embarked on creating a prayer booklet of daily personal reflections for the season of Advent. This year's reflections, created by both individuals and families, will be available online and in print for the start of Advent. Your voice counts, offering a unique inspiration for our community’s Advent journey. Please consider sharing a written reflection, a poem, a story, a drawing, a painting, or a photograph that describes your personal and prayerful response to a scripture passage selected for you. Here are a few voices from past contributors:

“What a gift to share from the heart in community;” “Creating a reflection helps me prepare myheart and share that preparation for the yearly sweeping out of the heart in the advent to thebirth of Christ;” “To pour over a scripture, to be thoughtful in an intentional, inspired time bringsmeaning to advent;” I love the way the reflections bring the past into the present, and into ourlives.”

If you are willing to share a personal reflection as part of our community effort, please reach out to one of the booklet team and we will contact you with a Scripture especially chosen for you: Magnolia Vandiver (207-469-5778), Pat Spencer (301-751-0555), Katy Jensen (720-6146978), Rev Alice Grant (443-808-1361), Adela Rose (443-924-1726) adelarose41@aol.com, or Heather Strang (443-995-3820) keepthefeast@verizon.net.
