A is for Angels Anticipation and Annunciation:
Rumours of angels, visions of light. Graham Kendrick’s classic song sets the scene. It’s One of my advent favourites even after all these years.
Here’s one I made earlier. None of us British Baby Boomers will ever forget our Blue Peter Christmases! *That wonky Advent Crown would never make the grade nowadays, would it? Talk about a health and safety disaster waiting to happen! Get down Shep!!
aren’t there annunciations
of one sort or another
in most lives?
Jim Manney reflects on Denise Levertov’s ‘Annunciation’ and asks: Who is the messenger God is sending to you? What is the message?
What other Advent ‘As’ can you think of? I’d love to hear them. Do share in the comments.

Lovely… let the countdown begin!!
Your turn to open the window!
Not sure how Advent-ish, but Advent Awe comes to mind – the awe we feel in preparation of the coming of Christ…. Blessings!!???? ????????
That’s definitely Advent-ish, thanks! I think it sits well with Anticipation. ????
