PLUS an easy-to-follow leader's guide

This reproducible eResource provides both content and faith sharing starter questions for small groups during Advent. The Sunday readings come alive in this resource, helping participants integrate them into their daily lives.

Beautifully illustrated and laid out, this resource will find its way into many areas of parish life. Each includes:

  1. Opening prayer
  2. Conversation starters for reflecting back on the last week
  3. Scripture readings from the Old and New Testaments
  4. Reflections with insights on the readings and how they may speak to us today
  5. Questions for reflection and conversation
  6. Closing prayer

All elements of this eResource are reproducible and you get a license for use in your own parish. You may also email the elements of this to people who must miss a meeting, or to leaders as they prepare.

    eResources for Advent and Lent

    Posted by Margo Martin on Nov 9th 2022

    we have been using these materials in our parish faith-sharing groups for several years now and they are very well received by the participants. The added bonus is that they are so very affordable for our small parish with few resources.

    I have not read the material carefully yet but chose this resource because I liked the discussion questions. How can I change, What do I hope to get out of this study, what discourages or troubles you, etc.
