Led by: Christopher Chapman The Christian year begins not with the great feasts of Christmas, Easter or Pentecost but with waiting. Advent is in many ways a stark season – a time to be in touch with our deepest desires and needs. It is a season of longing directed towards Christ, revealed as God-with-us, Emmanuel. Advent is a season of waiting, but in hope and in expectation. Drawing on the message of the prophets, poetry and insights from the Christian spiritual tradition, we will explore the invitation Advent holds for us.
Arrive in time for supper at 7pm on Friday and depart by 3pm on Sunday.
