Advent Calendar

Sarah and I are making our Advent wreath tonight, and we thought it would be a good idea to have a calendar to pray by each day. After looking at several, we decided it would be better to make our own.  So, we created a calendar that had each day of Advent with the name of a family member, friend, our priests, etc. on it and we plan to pray for that individual each day of Advent.  What will you be praying through advent?

You and your nonbiblical holidays. The Christmas season is a time where we celebrate Santa Claus, reindeer, Christmas trees, elves and Bing Crosby and only mention Jesus' birth when we talk about how we're not supposed to mention Jesus' birth. Duh!

That is funny Matt, but yet a sad reminder of our society these days.

As everyone at my office says...

"Happy Holidays..."

...and as I always say in return...

"Merry Christmas!"
