Pocketful of Grace
"Wait" Advent podcast
How do we capture the sacred nature of these weeks we call Advent, to reflect, make space and prepare our hearts and selves to be placed into God's story? This week Mary travels to see Elizabeth as they are both awaiting births. It is a time of waiting, between what has been and what is yet to be. How do we wait? We invite you to step away from what is filling our lives, yet unfinished to allow God to speak. Where do you need God to meet you, to send someone to wait with you? Who might God send you to be with? May our questions become holy conversations and invitations into hope.
Pastor Carolyn Hetrick of Grace Lutheran Church in State College, PA leads a time of reflection, God's word, breathing and prayer to ground ourselves and leave carrying a pocketful of grace for the journey.
