Main Text
<p><img style="margin-right: 5px; float: right; margin-left: 5px;" src="/images/AD_Calendar.jpg" width="20%" /><strong>The Challenges in this Advent calendar may involve prayer, reading, action, or simply contemplation.</strong></p> <p>In the Sermons on the Mount and on the Plain Jesus spoke of blessings. They are known in the church as the Beatitudes from their first words which mean blessed or happy. They refer to the state of deep joy when we are in relationship with God, therefore perfect for anticipating Advent.</p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">Challenge: Consider your personal relationship with God. Do you even have one? How would you describe it if asked? Is it going well? To build relationship try saying ‘Jesus I love you’ several times during the day.</span></p>
