YOUR CHRISTMAS SEASON AT ICF
The contemplative season of Advent opens the door to a story that touches us all. It tells of God’s boundless love, the trust that carries us through challenges, and the radiant hope that shines in the coming of Jesus.
Look forward to the Prayer Advent Calendar, where you can experience Advent in your living room with Leo and Susanna Bigger. The spirit of Christmas awaits you at our local and weekly celebrations – from the touching and contemplative Candlelight Celebration to the unique Christmas Experience – you, your friends and family are welcome!
