Advent is a sacred time, one of our favorite times of the year. We wanted to share our love for this practice with you!
Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room: A Family Celebration of Advent is a labor of love from my family to yours. It provides a framework to experience the richness of the season, both physically and spiritually, through music, Scripture, food, activities, and dialogue. The title is a favorite line from “Joy to the World” - every heart, no matter how young or old, can prepare room for Jesus. There’s something powerful about celebrating Advent as a whole family; our activities are suggested with the span of ages and abilities in mind so all can participate together.
This guide is a resource offering a framework for your family’s individual celebration of Advent. It focuses not on daily readings, but on five celebrations, one for each of the four Sundays leading up to Advent as well as Christmas Eve.
The goal of each celebration is to provide a rich, spiritually significant, multi-sensory practice that will engage your entire family, regardless of the ages of your children. For each Advent Sunday, there is a suggested “Menu” which includes the theme, a carol, suggested treats, Advent reading, Scripture, a song to listen to, discussion questions, activities to do, and stories to enjoy. Just as at a restaurant you make choices from a menu, you can choose items off of each Advent Menu according to what works for your family.
This guide will help you understand the "Why" and "How" of celebrating Advent and give you the framework for making meaningful connection with your family as you celebrate Jesus' coming together.
