2023 Advent Arts Project

Advent: a time of watching and waiting and getting ready for the wonder of Christmas, the gift of God being with us. Each year, SBSers help us journey through this season by sharing all kinds of artistic expressions in response to a theme. This year’s theme is “Great Joy For All the People,” echoing the words of the angel to the shepherds in Luke 1.

Our artists shared their work at our Advent Arts Night on December 12, and we’re featuring them here too, hoping that they bless you in your journey to Christmas.
