ADVENT

Advent

Advent is the period which leads up to Christmas.

It starts on the Sunday nearest to November 30th.

Many Advent customs involve counting the days

until Christmas begins.

Some churches have an advent wreath with five

candles, one for each of the four Sundays leading

up to Christmas Day and one for the day itself.

Rev Vicki joined us for assembly on Monday and told us

about Advent and Advent windows.

Remember

Do you do anything special to

celebrate Advent?

What is going to happen in

Cheswick Green this year connected to Advent?

What is philanthropy?

What have Bill and Melinda Gates done that is so amazing?

What do you think Andrew Carnegie meant by 'No man can become rich without himself enriching others'?

Do you think this is true?

How much money do you think you need before it is of no use?
