Advent

This year we are starting a new Advent tradition. We really want to make sure to set aside time to celebrate this time and prepare for the coming of Christ so we are meeting with friends each week to pray, eat, tell the kids the story of Christ's birth, sing, and fellowship together. It has been wonderful so far. We are so thankful for sweet friends who are willing to host and lead the lesson. Hopefully our children will be able to appreciate this time each year and be able to escape the chaotic, stressful nature of the American holiday and really focus on God's love for us as demonstrated in sending His Son to be our Savior.

Here are a few pictures from today's gathering. The Fosters are missing because they were sick. :(
