ADVENT JOURNAL PRE-ORDERS LAUNCH 7AM ON SATURDAY 10TH OCTOBER!

This year's Kids Advent Daily Journal is called 'Counting Down with Hope'.

With the same (sometimes shorter) daily Bible passages as our adult Advent journal, this Daily Bible Writing journal will take children on an Advent journey of discovering what the Bible says about waiting with hope. They will find out about:

• God's promise to always be with them as they wait

• God's help in times when waiting is hard

• the excitement they can experience as we wait for Jesus to come back

Each daily, double-page spread has a short Bible passage for children to write out (that matches the adult journal), plus space for their thanksgivings and thoughts (whether written, drawn or doodled!). At the end of each week there is a page for them to use to reflect on what they've learned that week.

As usual we've included lots of hints and tips with child-friendly explanations. And there are also some bonus full-page colouring pages!

'Counting Down with Hope' also contains our 'Prayer Pages' inspired by our 'Power of Prayer' journal. These extra pages at the start of the journal will help children think about who and what they want to pray for over the month of December. They can then record the prayers that God has answered and the things they want to keep praying for at the end of their journal.

Our prayer is that by using this journal while waiting with excitement for Christmas Day, children will understand better how much God loves them, and how He can help them wait, with hope.
