About this Event
Join the Christ Church and St. Michael’s communities this Advent season to reflect on the miracle of the Incarnation through the eyes of St. Francis. St. Francis was the first person to create a living nativity in a little hillside town in Italy over 800 years ago. For Francis, re-enacting the setting for Christ's birth was a way to recognize the Creator who came down to be a part of the creation. Drawing on his December cover story for The Christian Century magazine, Ragan Sutterfield will lead us in some fireside reflections on what it means that Christ came among us and the beautiful truths St. Francis first called to our attention. There will be activities for the children while the adults have time for reflection. Our time together will include with a Franciscan inspired “wild church” eucharist, and close with s’mores, hot cocoa, and cider around the fire.
