Counting Down to Christmas

Join us as we count down to Christmas Day through the season of Advent. Drawing from traditions of Advent Calendars with cardboard opening doors, we present a short daily dose of inspiration delivered direct to your email inbox each morning. 

Beginning a couple of days ahead of Advent each year, we send daily emails right up to and including Christmas Day.

SEARCHING FOR CHRISTMAS

Detective Sam T. Sirhc is on the job along with her trusty side-kick, Leon (Noel spelt backwards). Together with their Christmas friends they'll take us on an all-age adventure leading up to Christmas day. This year there's a collaborative opportunity to be involved by filling in a questionnaire before 21 November 2023. Read more about Searching for Christmas on our Counting Down to Christmas Substack site. 

Our 2023 Counting Down to Christmas includes lots of questions. Some may surprise, some may delight, some may make us ponder, some may make us wonder. The hope in this search for Christmas we will all found ourselves closer to God-With-Us.

We may have searched previously for Christmas in our own lives, and consider we’ve found already found Christmas, rendering this topic unnecessary, but in Counting Down to Christmas we appreciate that there is mystery, awe and wonder in the search.

Counting down to Christmas is about opening doors and stepping out into new experiences, thoughts and discoveries. Each day a daily email will arrive and like traditional Advent Calendars the door will open to reveal a video vignette and two or three short paragraphs of inspiration.

DAILY COUNTING DOWN TO CHRISTMAS EMAILS

The daily emails arrive at 5am (NZT) every morning starting from 1st December 2023 with a final email on 26th December 2023
