The 2023 URC Advent resource for families ‘God in the Ordinary’ are now available for pre-order. The focus is on helping people find God in their daily lives as well as in the Christmas story.
Each pack will contain:
- A giant poster with a ‘countdown to Christmas’, lots of suggestions for thigs to do, and QR code links to the Faith Adventures: Children Together take-home postcards with the Bible story, prayer and activity for the four weeks of Advent
- Four mini-books (which look like presents) with ribbon to hang them up as decorations – each telling part of the Christmas story with playful photo illustrations and a simple prayer
- Four stained glass windows to colour (linked to the four books)
They are available at a subsidised rate to make them as affordable as possible:
£3 for a single pack plus P&P
£28 for a pack of 10 plus P&P (£2.80 each)
£65 for a pack of 25 plus P&P (£2.60 each)
Pre-orders should be made by mid-October. Please contact the CYDO Officer Judy Harris, judy.harris.urcwales@urc.org.uk or contact Children and Youth directly to order. They should be available for despatch from 1 November.
Grants to cover the cost of the pack for churches needing help (just pay P&P) will be available through a separate application form or contact the CYDO Officer, Judy Harris for more information.
