Alongside Hope Encourages Advent Healing

Alongside Hope (formerly The Primate's World Relief and Development Fund) has announced their upcoming Advent resource for 2025. The Advent of Healing is a daily resource delivered by the Reverend Dr. Ray Aldred (Cree, Swan River Band, Treaty 8). This Advent, you are invited to consider the words of truth, healing, reconciliation, and right relationships and explore what it means to heal yourself, to heal others, and to heal God’s creation so we might live into right relationships.

This 2025 resource is emailed daily, containing a scripture reading, a reflection from Dr. Aldred, a prayer and an Alongside Hope story. You can learn more about the resource by participating in a launch webinar on Thursday, November 20. Parishioners can sign up to receive the Advent devotions here: https://alongsidehope.org/advent2025/
