The season of Advent in the Church is once again upon us. The word Advent comes from the Latin word adventus which means “coming towards.” It is a season of the church that is celebrated on the 4 Sundays before Christmas.

This partnership has taken many forms as it has grown throughout the years-- we’ve supported them through seasonal offerings, hands on volunteer projects, special events, and collection drives.
