As we celebrate the Liturgical Season of Advent, please see below an Advent Family Prayer from The Student Ethos Team.
Advent is a time of great expectancy, enduring hope, celebratory joy, abiding peace. It is meaningful way to not only journey through the nativity story but to deeply connect with these resonating themes found in Christ’s birth.
Due to its focus on prayer and contemplation, Advent allows us to step away from the holidays’ hurried pace and to become aware of God’s presence as we ponder and joyfully cherish the expectancy, hope, joy and peace seen in the nativity story.
An Advent Family Prayer
God of hope, who brought love into this world, be the love that dwells between us. God of hope, who brought peace into this world, be the peace that dwells between us. God of hope, who brought joy into this world, be the joy that dwells between us. God of hope, the rock we stand upon, be the centre, the focus of our lives always, and particularly this Advent time.
Amen.
