Advent by Candlelight

An Evening of Reflection and Fellowship for Women

Friday, December 6 at 7 pm, beginning in the Church
Featuring Guest Speaker, Sheri Wohlfert
Speaker, Blogger and Faith Magazine Columnist

Please join us for a special evening of faith and fellowship for women as we begin Advent.

Advent by Candlelight is a tradition here at Saint Thomas, inviting all the women of the Parish and their families and friends to take a moment away from their busy lives to focus on what Advent is all about: Preparing our hearts to receive Jesus in a new way at Christmas.

Come alone, with a group of friends or host a table of 8. We start our evening in the Church with prayer, song, a reflection by Sheri Wohlfert, and a short time for personal prayer. This is followed by a festive reception in the lower level where you can sit at a reserved table of up to 8 ladies or fellowship with many women, while mingling through the beverage and food tables.

Please RSVP below. All are invited to bring an appetizer, dessert or beverage to share. We will do the decorating, but if you want to help out in any way, please note that on the RSVP or contact Pam Strobel at pamstrobel@stthomasgr.org.
