Advent began Sunday, December 1, 2020. Many people were seeking ways to make this Christ-centered time. The short but impactful devotions in that year’s Presbyterians Read book, Celebrating Abundance by Walter Brueggemann, helped to create a healthy rhythm of spiritual reflection throughout the season. In this webinar, Emily Hill, Christian Education Coordinator for Canadian Ministries, introduced the book and discussed how small group leaders can use the study guide she created to facilitate weekly discussion groups about the book. Whether you have already organized a small group or are thinking about starting one, please join us!
