Advent Class
What is Advent and how do I "do" it? Advent is a season of preparation for Christmas and The Incarnation, as well as its own deep and important season (1-23 December), but sometimes it's hard to learn how to participate fully while doing it. This class will set you up with history, practice and Scripture so that you can more fully enter into this deep and beautiful season and into Christmas itself.
If you have any questions ask me or email me at mkburenett01@gmail.com
All are welcome to come celebrate a Pre-Advent Tradition at Holy Trinity Anglican Church!
The Hanging of the Greens

Every year on the Sunday before Advent we gather to decorate the church with greenery in preparation for the Advent Season. We have an Advent themed craft for children and their families. Then we share cookies and a warm drink as we sing Carols by the Piano (Cause it’s Pre-Advent :)
Advent Wreaths ($11) and Candles ($7) will also be available for purchase

Holy Trinity is inviting artists to offer works for display in the Church and on the Holy Trinity website during the Advent and Christmas seasons.
We are hoping to receive artwork of all mediums that reflect the first Collect of the Advent Season (BCP 2019):
"Almighty God, give us grace to cast away the works of darkness, and
put on the armor of light, now in the time of this mortal life in which
your Son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility; that in the
last day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge
both the living and the dead, we may rise to the life immortal;
through him who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, now and for ever. Amen."
If you have a work of art reflecting these Advent themes that you would like to offer for display, please send a photo and a brief description about the piece via email to Laura Laurie (Laura.E.Laurie@gmail.com)
Curt Thompson says that beauty will save the world. He writes, “In all that awakens within us in the pure and authentic experience of beauty, there is, truly, the presence of God.” To quote another friend here in this congregation, Lancia Smith,“Every act of beauty is a defiance of despair, every candle lit repels the darkness.”
The strongly reinforced theme of the Compline service is this: God is our protector. It is the last service of the Daily Office, and it deals most directly with the assaults of the devil and the other perils we face, asking for God’s peace and shelter. Compline is, in fact, spiritual warfare.
Join us for this service rich with Scripture, music, peace, and beauty, it is an opportunity to lay your cares at God’s throne.
Join us to pray for peace on December 7th.
Find the tree with ornaments near the entrance of the church. There will be a box available to return your gift with your ornament before December 1st
