Who Packed the Turkey?
Introducing Counting Down to Christmas 2025
This year our Counting Down to Christmas includes the daily release of one or two chapters from an all-age fictional story called, 'Who Packed the Turkey?' We meet Anna, her family and friends for a Christmas adventure. Anna's Christmas plans are completely up-ended and she becomes homeless on Christmas Eve. The story covers her journey over a few days. Through our realtime Advent, we travel with Anna as she joins the Three Wise Movers on a moving road trip. On our journey we discover what it means to experience God-With-Us. This includes a retelling of the Nativity Story. Anna's own story has many quirky, fun and poignant coincidences with the story of the first Christmas.
In 2025 an intentional focus on interaction with subscribers is included. Accompanying the daily content will be a curated comments section. This will be something like an online book club in real time. We'll introduce three real-life wise movers. These wonderful, strong women each take turns curating the daily comments section. Subscribers can choose to participate in the conversation, read the comments or simply read the story each day.
