Educating Leaders - No Conveyor Belt Education Here!

November 22, 2006 - Advent Countdown Ideas

A couple of weeks ago I asked for help - I had a few questions as

I finalized our new Christmas & Advent Celebrations for the

Holidays Package.

 

Your response was overwhelming - we had HUNDREDS of responses,

and they helped us refine the package so it covers EXACTLY what

our readers need to know about celebrating Christmas and Advent

with meaning.

 

We are now getting very close to our release date - it should

fall somewhere between November 24th and November 29th, depending

on a few last minute details.

 

In the coming days we will be updating you with all the "behind

the scenes" details, but here is a quick overview...

 

I started working on this back in 2002, and really started

working on it in earnest in 2004.  Back then, I was working on a

Bible study for my children to better understand the Star of

Bethlehem.  After I finished the Star of Bethlehem Study, I

started learning more about Advent and Christmas traditions and

their Christian origin.

 

It took a very long time, but we now have a full blown package

Christmas & Advent Celebrations for the Holidays Package,

including two family guides, one gift guide, two meal preparation

books, and five holiday recipe books.

 

The package will cover what I use to add meaning to our

celebration and anticipation of Christmas.

 

In short, this is a complete unloading of what I know about

adding meaning to Christmas & Advent celebrations.  And you will

be able to get it in just a week or two.

 

In the next few days, I will be settting up a site to keep you

updated on my progress with the Christmas & Advent Celebrations

for the Holidays Package.  So please stay tuned.

 

In the meantime, I want to share some celebration ideas with you

right now.  Click here to get your free copy of my Advent

Countdown.

November 22, 2006 - Advent Ideas

Posted by Ladonna
Dear Kerry,

We have already planned to decorate our home on Friday, as we decided not to do the day after Thanksgiving shopping spree with the bulk of America! :)

We don't do plum pudding, but I think making cookies is a great idea to add to our plan of decorating and watching a Christmas movie together as a family.

My husband is a pastor, so we do church twice and try to rest in between on Sundays. Saturday is always Sunday preparation day, so we decided to take Friday as a family day.

Thanks for reminding us to slow down and enjoy our families, while we celebrate the Lord.

God bless you,
Ladonna
