30th November 2025 (Year A – Advent 1) “Waiting with Intention this Advent”

Lilac Breasted Roller – National Bird of Botswana and Kenya

Here we have the first Sunday of Advent – the beginning of the New Christian Year, which leads us to Christmas.

How are we to respond – for many people it is a complex time? But even long before Jesus was born, Isaiah encouraged us to draw away from all the flurry and take time to listen, pray and long for the vision of the Kingdom of God, for each of us.

ALL AGE MESSAGE

We are not good at waiting and in the digital age, waiting takes us to the next level.

As we begin Advent this year, think about it as a ‘time for hopeful waiting’.

Make it be less about the business and preparations and more about waiting for Jesus, and receiving anew, the most precious gift from God.
