Over the years I've created a lot of resources for Advent and Christmas, you can find some of them through the links in this post. If you would like to use any of these then I am happy to email them to you in return for a donation to charity. Please email me emmuk74 at Gmail dot com.
Pause and Pray
For Advent 2024 I am exhibiting eight of my "prayer paintings" in the Art Space at St Nicolas Earley. These paintings will be the focus of an advent course encouraging us to pause and pray each day. You can find out more here
We are the Nativity Crowd
The Christmas story told in poetry for children and easily used as a nativity play.
An abstract advent journey
In 2021 I created two series of abstract planet paintings journeying through Advent and Christmas to Epiphany.
I designed these to encourage conversations - what does this say to you? How does it relate to the Bible reading? How might it inspire your prayers?
Journeying through Advent with Mary
In 2021 I revisited a journey I made with Mary through Advent in 2011. You can find the whole series at the link below. Journeying with Mary through Advent
Celtic Advent
In Advent 2022 I decided to create a painting each day inspired by the Celtic Saints. You can find more about this at https://www.llmcalling.com/post/celtic-advent-with-the-saints
Advent Hope
In 2023 I created a painting accompanied by a haiku poem every day through advent on the theme of hope. You can find these at https://www.llmcalling.com/post/advent-hope
Angels and Stars
During Christmas 2023 I was inspired to create a series of paintings depicting the Angels and Stars which appeared in the sky, to the Shepherds and the Wise Men, telling of Jesus' birth. You can find them at this link
Mary Mother of God
