Advent Resources for Children and Family Ministry

As congregations navigate gathering and worship in a variety of ways, faith formation during the seasons of Advent and Christmas might still need adjustment and adaptation.

Below are a few resources to inform and support faith formation with children & families during the seasons of Advent and Christmas.  This list will be updated over the next few months.

• Children’s sermon introducing the Advent wreath (filmed in 2020 but still relevant for 2021)
• Expanded Instructional video for creating an Advent wreath
• 2021 Advent Family Devotions instructions
• Celebrate Advent at Home (additional ideas for families)
• 2021 Advent Resource Round Up (notes and tips for leaders)
• Blue Christmas liturgy (this liturgy serves as an example of a Blue Christmas service, and would need to be adjusted/adapted for local context–music, etc)
• Script for a Zoom Christmas Pageant
