The Spiritual Formation team at Riverbend United Church was inspired to create an Advent devotional with daily readings written by members of Riverbend United Church.  Click here for this stunning collection of wisdom from individuals and groups in the congregation. Below you will find a playlist of songs referenced in the 2024 Advent Devotional.

Thank you to everyone who submitted reflections and meditations, which made this devotional possible.  As we wait in anticipation for the newborn babe once again, we hope this Advent journey will allow you to reflect and experience the Advent story in new and meaningful ways.
