Decorating…gifts…parties…greeting cards…friends…family – the
hustle and bustle of getting ready for and celebrating Christmas. It
seems to start earlier each year…and grow ever more hectic. Getting our
houses and our lives in order for the holidays can be a daunting challenge, one
that can eclipse Advent, the season of preparation for the coming of the God
who makes all things new for us.
A three-session “Lunchtime Advent Study,” led by The Rev.
Kaji Douša at the
United Church of Christ of La Mesa (UCCLM), will focus on ways of bringing joy
to the season by “putting our houses in order” spiritually, physically and
within our families and communities.
We invite you to join us for these discussions, to share
with us the opportunity to experience new meaning and depth as we prepare for
the wonder of Christmas.
