This looks like a great resource for local communities during Advent.
The Church of England will be launching this year's Advent and Christmas resources with a webinar on Thursday 4 September.
The 2pm webinar will cover daily reflections, downloadable resources for churches, an exciting new resource for children and more.

This is really encouraging news. I look forward to working with local communities as they develop new areas of mission and ministry, hopeful that we are sharing a transformational Gospel.
