Advent Festival

Prepare your heart and home for Advent
Saturday, November 23, 2:00 - 5:00 pm
Open-house style: Come and go as you are able  
Advent is a time when we prepare to welcome Jesus into the world. Join us for an afternoon of creativity and inspiration to bring your heart and home into the spirit of Advent and Christmas. 

​Activities are appropriate for all ages, and everyone is invited to join us as we anticipate the start of Advent. The event is “open-house style” so you can come and go as you are able and participate in just the activities you choose. The Festival is free, but reservations are requested to ensure that we have enough supplies for all who want to participate. Fill out the form below to reserve your spot!

Presented in part by CtK’s Women of the ELCA (WELCA). 

There will be a number of guided activities for all ages, abilities and interests to choose from during this time:

• Make an Advent wreath to take home
• Decorate (and eat!) Christmas cookies
• Bend a wire-angel ornament to take home
• Create liturgical art for use at Christ the King during Advent
• Participate in meditation and prayer for the world
• Join a drum circle
• Receive communion “a la cart”
• Explore an international creche display
• Shop for a Christmas gift basket or purchase a quilt raffle ticket; proceeds benefit Lutheran Disaster Relief
