This children’s devotional was designed as a kid-friendly companion to the
2024 NSCBC Advent Devotional. Each O Antiphon has been paraphrased
with more accessible language for children.
Each page is actually a coloring page featuring a large icon symbolic of that
particular name for Jesus. Children are encouraged to color and explore!
Each year, NSCBC authors and artists contribute to a devotional that prepares our hearts for the season of Advent. As a community, we walk together in the longing of Advent, clinging to beauty and the hope of the King who is to come.
This year, our artists’ contributions are organized around a set of seven prayers called the O Antiphons, which are anthems sung responsively that have been used in the season of Advent for thirteen-hundred years. Rich with biblical language and themes, they cry out, ‘Come!’
