Firstfruits Women's Group
The weeks leading up to Christmas are meant to be spent in peaceful and joyful anticipation. That isn't always how it plays out though. So often, the meaning of the season gets lost in all of the busyness. Firstfruits wants to help you reinvent your Advent. For three Mondays in Advent, join us for prayer and time to just be creative. Each week, we will begin with prayer and reflection. Following this time of reflection, we will be led by different local artists/experts to create gifts that can be given to someone on your Christmas list for yourself.
- Dates: Monday, November 30, December 7 and December 14.
- Time & Location: 9:30-11:00 a.m. or 6:30-8:00 p.m. in the Parish Center—St. Joseph Room
Register by Nov. 23 by calling the parish office at 414-771-4626.
