Christ Our Shepherd Advent Calendar 2019
Norine Brunson
Daily Advent Reflection from Linda Volckmann
While Advent is a time of Waiting, I see people who aren’t just, WAITING, but putting Christ in Action in areas of the world where his message can put your life on the line. These are my heroes in our world. I see Advent in these people. Like Norine Brunson. may I always be ready to say Yes.
NORINE BRUNSON: In Christ I Say Yes
In 2016, missionaries Norine Brunson and her husband, Pastor Andrew Brunson, were arrested in Turkey. Norine was released 12 days later, but Andrew remained in prison for two years. Norine remained in Turkey throughout his imprisonment to support Andrew and fight for his freedom. Both are presently free, but continue in their ministry.
Father in Heaven, help us always to remember that while we await your coming again, we continue to build your Kingdom to be ready whenever you are ready to return. Amen
