We have written Family Devotions for Advent to help you keep your family’s focus on God during this Advent season. Each devotion includes scripture reading, reflection questions, a prayer guide, and an activity for your family to do together. You can download the devotions here.
We have also put together some ideas for helping you to make your own family Advent wreath. One idea is to simply cut out a circle of plastic foam or wood. Equally space four candles around the circular base. Attach evergreen cuttings to cover the base and then place a larger white candle in the middle of the wreath.
Other ideas include advent candles in a large wooden bowl. A homemade version of this wreath can be found here.
