ADVENT RESOURCES DURING THE PANDEMIC
The Advent cry from the Prophet Isaiah holds new meaning for our times and greater urgency
because of the global COVID-19 pandemic.
In the face of such extreme suffering and heartache as a result of COVID-19, as well as the economic, political, social unrest and uncertainty across our world, together with the devastating impact of climate change on our planet and our lives, we hope and pray these video and music resources will comfort you and your communities in your waiting, hoping and longing!

Videos and Music for Children
For Comfort and Protection
Before viewing these videos with children, it is recommended that the parent or prayer guide view them beforehand to ensure familiarity with the resource and their suitability in light of their children’s readiness.
We also suggest that you create a quiet, sacred space and perhaps light a candle and settle the children, by way of preparing them to view these videos and/or to listen to the music.
Bedtime would be an ideal time to share these resources with children.
VIEWING VIDEOS ~ PLEASE NOTE
If you experience the videos spasmodically stopping during playback, this is due to the high volume of internet usage in your region.
We are unable to resolve this as it is not a fault with our videos.
We suggest that you try to view the videos during off-peak internet periods or contact your internet service provider for assistance.
