Advent Devotionals

Hear the Christmas Angels

Heavenly messengers are a significant part of the Christmas story.  There are angels popping up all over the place during the birth of Jesus! Our little ones love to dress up as angels for the Nativity service, and many of us will hang angels on our Christmas trees. 

This year’s RFC advent readings will take all the angelic appearances around the birth of Christ as a source of reflection. What do the angels tell us about Jesus? How do the humans with whom they speak (Zechariah, Elizabeth, Mary, Joseph, the shepherds) respond to their words? How should we respond to the good news of Messiah’s birth? 

We hear the Christmas angels 

The great, glad tidings tell 

O come to us, abide with us 

Our Lord Emmanuel  

We pray that these short daily advent readings, prepared by members of our church, will encourage your heart and enrich your faith during the build to Christmas.
