I really like the brothers at SSJE.
I’ve been a member of the Fellowship of SSJE for years. Their Rule has long had a strong influence in my life for over a decade.
Here’s a portion of a devotional thought I just received in my inbox:
…Advent is quite countercultural to the maelstrom of activity, shopping, and festivity that so easily consumes the month of December.
Make some space to watch and wait for Christ’s coming. You might find it a helpful practice to take some time each day to sit with a newspaper or news magazine in your lap and to pray over the scenes you witness – praying for the light and life and love of Christ to come to these places of need, and to pray for yourself, that you, too, be a Christbearer.
