The season of Advent begins this Sunday. It is a time of preparing our hearts for the birth of Jesus Christ. As I do each year at this time, I have been thinking and praying on what I shall do for this joyous season. In the past, I have chosen to read and meditate on what the Bible says for each day of Advent. This is something I will do again this year. However, I found myself wanting to do something more hands on (for lack of a bettery way to put it). On the website of a favorite Church, I found my answer...
"A Reverse Advent Calendar"
Her's how it works. For each day of Advent, you add an item to a food box. Then on Christmas Eve, you donate the filled box to a local food bank. I like this. So many go without during this time of year and it is a small way for me to help.
