Rev. Vicky Allen - Advent Devotionals
First UMC of Fairless Hills recently sent us their annual Advent devotional booklet, a collection of 26 thoughtful meditations authored by Pastor Vicky Allen and 18 church members. It arrived neatly copied, folded and stapled together on plain paper, as plain perhaps as the rustic manger where the baby Jesus was born. But their heartfelt prose and prayers elevate those plain pages into rich testaments of faith and simple theological wisdom that can inspire one’s daily reading and reflection.
Allen and her fellow scribes agreed to let us publish their Advent offerings in our Website’s INSPIRE section for the edification of our readers. So take one or more of these a day, like a prescription from the Great Physician, to help fortify and prepare your heart for the coming of the once and future King, who rules and abides with us even today.
Do enjoy these writings, and if your church has also produced an Advent devotional, please send us a copy with permission to publish some selections. We’ve got “plenty good room” here to share words of life and faith with a world waiting to be INSPIRED.
