Your Flower Dedication defrays the cost of providing the Chancel flowers.

The beauty of God’s creation is mirrored in the gorgeous flower arrangements that grace our Chancel each Sunday morning at worship.

This gesture can be in memory of loved ones, in honor of someone special in your life, or simply to the Glory of God.

You will receive an email at the beginning of your week asking how you would like the dedication to be noted.

Flower arrangements are taken care of by Flower Committee and average $35-$40. You can place your contribution toward your dedication by sending a check with “Flower Dedication” in memo, placing in the offering plate, or by giving online.

Thank you!

Dec. 3rd marks the beginning of our Advent season. “Advent” means “coming” or “arrival.” During the season of Advent, we celebrate Christ’s coming into the world and actively watch and wait with expectant hope for his coming again. The Tuckahoe Presbyterian Church Christian Formation committee has assembled several different resources to help guide your spiritual journey through this holy season. 

A Little Child Shall Lead Them: Inspiration from Henri Nouwen:

Make sure to stop by the table in the Narthex and get a copy of our Advent booklet, A Little Child Shall Lead Them: Inspiration from Henri J. M. Nouwen.  This booklet is a thorough, prayerful meditation on how God’s divine love is best revealed in Jesus. The booklet features a page-a-day format of Scripture readings, reflections, and prayers, offering a springboard for your quiet times during this holy season.

 

Advent Prayer Bags:

The Youth of Tuckahoe Presbyterian Church and the Christian Formation Committee have assembled some special prayer bags to help guide your devotional time in this season.  They include tactile items to help center your prayerful conversations as you consider the hope, love, joy, and peace of this sacred time. These will be delivered to homebound members and out for your individual taking (in the Narthex) of the sanctuary beginning Sunday, December 3. Please feel free to collect one from the designated box.

 

Presbyterian Earth Care Advent Daily Devotional 2023:This online Advent devotional hopes to inspire creation care and celebrate the blessing of life on this planet during the Advent season. It includes daily meditations, prayers and calls to action written by PEC members. Note: this devotional begins on November 27th – Advent itself begins on December 3rd, so you will have a few extra days to begin your Advent journey with this devotional. You can find the devotional online here: https://presbyearthcare.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/PEC-Advent-Devotional-2023-Online-Version.pdf  Please contact Hannah Creager, Director of Christian Formation if you would like a printed version of the devotional.

 

Bless the Advent We Actually Have: A Daily Devotional for the Christmas Season

Celebrate the Advent season (for all that it actually is) through the meditations and writings from best-selling author and academic, Kate Bowler.  This free online downloadable devotional is designed to be used in conjunction with Bowler’s book of blessings, The Lives We Actually Have: 100 Blessings for Imperfect Days, but can easily stand on its own as an Advent guide.  Join Bowler as she explores the both the anticipation of the season and its joyful fulfillment.

 

A Christmas Album from The Porter’s Gate:

Need some music to set your heart to the beat of the Advent season? Over the past seven years, The Porter’s Gate worship project has brought together songwriters, pastors, scholars, and worship leaders to write new songs and create new resources for worship around a number of themes. The 2021 album “Advent Songs” is comprised of songs calling out for The Comforter to draw near to us our grief and loneliness, and for the Prince of Peace to break oppression and cease all wars.  You can listen to the album on Spotify.
