A free, virtual Advent reflection evening for young adults entitled “Advent at the Intersections” will be held on Friday, December 11, from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Young adults from both the Diocese of Portland and the Diocese of Manchester, New Hampshire, are invited to participate in the event, which will be facilitated by Cindy Cheshire, a campus minister at the Newman Center in Keene, New Hampshire.

Advent is a season of so many intersections: of the human with the Divine, of anticipation with assurance, of dark with light. This year, we are also experiencing the intersection of the togetherness of the holidays with the isolation of a global pandemic. The reflection evening will serve as a night to explore Advent at all of these intersections and more.

During the evening, participants will dive into Scripture, share traditions, and discover how God arrives at the intersections of their own lives. 

There is no fee to participate, but it is necessary to register at www.eventbrite.com/e/advent-at-the-intersections-tickets-129014751595. If possible, have a candle with you during the reflection evening.
