The holidays this year will be different. They’ve already begun to feel unusual with Thanksgiving taking place at greater distance and sometimes across video calls. As we turn the corner to Christmas, we’re realizing more and more that most, if not all, of what we “usually do” during the holidays will look or feel different this year.

But different doesn’t always mean bad.

As we enter Advent – the four weeks before Christmas – Ferncliff offers you an all new challenge. We challenge you to ground yourself in the holy. Each day for the next few weeks, we offer you a word. Let this word speak to you and surprise you that day. Look for it. When you find it (or it finds you!) snap a photo and post it with the hashtag #ferncliffwordchallenge. Let yourself be surprised where these words might occur for you this holiday season!

You can download a printable word calendar here, and you can use this image to share to social media what you’re up to.
