UKirk Collegiate Ministries is excited to bring you another year of Words for Waiting: Daily Devotions for Advent & Christmas. In partnership with the Presbyterian Mission Agency’s Office of Christian Formation, this free resource will once again be available as a printable PDF, and through daily blog posts. But we need your help to make it all happen!  

We’re looking for students, campus ministers, and campus ministry groups to create the daily reflections. Neighbors from other areas of the Church are welcome to fill out the interest form as well! (Though in the event that there are more interested contributors than days in the devotional, we’ll prioritize campus-ministry-connected folks.) Once selected, contributors will be assigned a Scripture reading from the Revised Common Lectionary’s Daily Readings, then be asked to provide a half-page reflection and 1-2 sentence prayer. Visual art, poetry, and other creative reflections are enthusiastically welcomed! To see examples of previous devotions, check out the Words for Waiting blog here.

If you’re interested in contributing to this year’s Words for Waiting, fill out this form by September 13. Questions? Contact [link to: ukirk.olemiss@gmail.com] project editor Allison Wehrung.
