You are invited to join a “Reflections on Christmas family walk”
|
|
Parc du Hautmont in Mouvaux.
|
|
Starting at 2:00 pm, we will be walking ‘together’ but separate for about 1 hour with guided reflections and bible readings to share at designated times during the walk.
|
|
And if you are participating in our ‘reverse advent’ outreach, you can also bring your donations with you and we will take them for you to the church on Dec. 20th.
