A season of waiting and hope.

Advent is the four-week season leading to Christmas. We remember the longing for Christ’s birth and look forward to his coming again.

At Desert Mission Anglican Church, these weeks give us a shared rhythm of worship and preparation. Here are a few of the things we look forward to each year. We’d love to share them with you.

Traditions we enjoy together.

Small acts of preparation help us attend to the hope of Christ’s coming.

Greening of the chapel

We prepare our worship space for the season with greenery. It’s a chance to work alongside one another and share the anticipation of Christmas.

The Advent wreath

Each Sunday leading to Christmas, our special Advent wreath liturgy marks another step in the season. As we light the candles and pray together, we turn our attention to the light of Christ.

Advent Choir, open to all

All are welcome to join our Advent Choir. Making music together is part of how we prepare, culminating in our family-friendly Christmas Eve Communion service.

Ask about joining the choir

You’re welcome to begin here.

You don’t need to know the Anglican tradition or have celebrated Advent before. Come for Sunday worship, bring your family, and share in the season with us.

We gather at 9:30 AM at 234 E Alice Ave in Sunnyslope, Phoenix. Our visitor guide explains what to expect when you arrive.
