The first Sunday of Advent is seven days away. If you are still having issues with order delivery, as I am, be sure to get your supplies, books and ideas ready for the year.
Having a mindful Christian Advent is a time of joy and wonder, sorely needed this year. It& #39;s a quiet time spent intentionally concentrating on the miracle of Jesus& #39; birth, rather than commercial Christmas.
This kind of Advent is sure to chase pandemic fears away so we can feel at peace.
Some ideas for Advent prep include:
- Get or make Advent candles. (We are doing beeswax candles from a kit this year. You can find the kit here ( https://toadilyhandmadebeeswaxcandles.com/advent-candles/ ).)
-">https://toadilyhandmadebeeswaxcandles.com/advent-ca... Purchase an Advent calendar or stock up one if you have a reusable model.
- Get the Advent wreath out of storage ... or buy one.

- Order a new Advent devotional or order new ones. This year I& #39;m using two favorites: "Preparing for Christmas" ( https://www.amazon.com/Preparing-Christmas-Daily-Reflections-Advent/dp/0867168838)">https://www.amazon.com/Preparing... by Richard Rohr and "Living in Joyful Hope" ( https://www.amazon.com/Living-Joyful-Hope-Christmas-Meditations/dp/1568545908)">https://www.amazon.com/Living-Jo... by Suzanne M. Lewis.
