I'm Looking for a Spiritual Directorwith Rolling Ridge staff
As we prepare our hearts for Christmas, we invite you to join Rolling Ridge for an ONLINE Advent Prayer Journey. Each Sunday during the weeks of Advent (beginning November 30th and concluding December 28th), we will offer ONLINE reflections and contemplative sharing at the Vesper Hour from 6:00 to 7:00 pm eastern. Celebrating Abundance: Devotions for Advent by Walter Brueggemann will be our guide this season as we remember his legacy and his passing this year in June 2025.

Brueggemann's powerful devotional includes daily reflections on the Scriptures and stories of Advent in order to invite us to see beyond the world's faux extravagance and realize the true feast laid out before us. Twelve prayers are also included for the twelve days of Christmas.
For our Advent Prayer Journey, each of the five weekly vesper experiences will feature Christmas music, candle lighting, readings, prayers, silence, reflection, and lectio divina using one of Brueggemann's devotions to shape our time together online. Sessions will be recorded with a link sent to those who register.
Although there is no charge for our Advent Prayer Journey, your generous year-end donation will allow Rolling Ridge to continue offering spiritual opportunities to encourage and support those who are seeking a touch of the Divine during these challenging times. Thank you for your support and partnership in this important work.
We invite you to also join us for our annual Advent Quiet Day on Monday, December 1st with overnight retreat options with our Advent Companioned Retreat.
