Throughout the 2020 Advent Season, we will be sharing an online devotional for prayer and contemplation on our website. We invite you to visit each week as we journey toward Bethlehem waiting with anticipation for the Messiah’s birth. The weekly devotionals will share reflections on this intentional anticipatory waiting time through the lens of the four Advent themes: hope, love, joy, and peace. The fourth reflection is provided by Rev. Starlette Thomas. View the first reflection by Interim General Secretary Jeff Woods here. View the second reflection by Rev. Dr. Atula Jamir here.
