#AdventWord 2015

#AdventWord 2015 December 24, 2015

I’ve enjoyed participating in this year’s #AdventWord Instagram journey with the online community connected with St. John the Evangelist. Each day, the brothers of the order gave us a word we could use for contemplation. We were invited to share our Instagrammed images inspired by that word with others. Here are mine. Blessings as you make your way to the manger this year.
