Via Zoom. During the Sunday school hour on Sunday mornings in Advent (November 29 and December 6, 13, and 20), Jim Strickland and Kate Fields will lead an Advent study titled Almost Christmas: A Wesleyan Advent Experience. In John Wesley’s famous sermon, “The Almost Christian,” he encouraged people to follow Christ wholeheartedly. In Almost Christmas: A Wesleyan Advent Experience, author and pastor Magrey deVega leads a group of authors (including Ingrid McIntyre) in exploring how we can make the same commitment to Christ during Advent and connect our Wesleyan heritage with the traditional Advent themes of love, hope, joy, and peace. All are welcome to participate. Contact Kate Fields (kate@belmontumc.org) for Zoom access information.
