This is the weekly bulletin insert from the Episcopal Church: #AdventWord.
#AdventWord
For the eighth year, #AdventWord will gather prayers via a global, online Advent calendar. Forward Movement, the new home of #AdventWord, will offer 28 daily meditations and images during this holy season beginning Sunday, November 28, 2021.
Gathering a worldwide community, #AdventWord provides a daily meditation, visual image, and invites your personal reflections via social media to share your own Advent journey. Thousands have participated each year, responding to the words with photos, written responses, crafts, drawings, poems, found art, and Holy Spirit-filled posts.
“A wonderful diversity of our church is witnessed in the reflections this year,” says #AdventWord program director, Sarah Stonesifer Boylan. “The beauty of #AdventWord stretches out to include a myriad of voices each Advent. I am looking forward to seeing the prayer-filled responses!”
The Advent Sunday lectionary readings inspire the word list for #AdventWord. Discover the visual and written meditations and give yourself the opportunity to dive deeper into the stories of this waiting season.

Church of the Redeemer
Welcome to Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, and reaching out to the world. We are an Episcopal Church serving north King County and south Snohomish County, Washington. As you travel your road, go with friends walking the way of Jesus at Redeemer.
Church of the Redeemer is at 6210 Northeast 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. The campus is a short distance north of Bothell Way, near the Burke-Gilman Trail. The entrance looks like a gravel driveway. The campus is larger on the inside than it is on the outside. And we managed to hide a large building on the side of a hill that is not easily seen from the street.
The Episcopal Church welcomes you.
