A Journey Through Advent
Bishop Deon Johnson invites all in the Diocese to engage in this special reflection series. Each day during Advent, we'll release a short video and written reflection based on the assigned daily Bible readings. These reflections will be offered by lay and clergy members from throughout the Diocese. A new reflection will be added each day.
Follow the daily Advent reflections on this page and/or our diocesan social media. The series runs from November 28 - December 25, 2021.
