Collaborative Advent Devotional
Download a copy of the First Church Advent Devotional. In it, you’ll find personal reflections, original and shared poetry, photographs, even original musical compositions, all shared by members of the congregation and inspired by our Advent theme of “All shall be well.” Thank you to all the contributors for your thoughtful, funny, touching, and inspiring offerings. It was truly a collaborative endeavor.
