ADVENT 2025

We are so often focused on the destination in our travels. “Where are you going?” is the most common question upon hearing that someone is heading out of town. While the destination is perhaps the impetus for deciding to “go,” it is often the journey itself that offers the most memorable moments–frustrating or delightful. This Advent season, we will pay attention not just to the destination of Christmas, but also to the places where events occurred that led to a starry night on which a child was born who would change the world. And we will ponder our own milestones–the progress and the potholes “on the way.”
