SUMMARY:First Presbyterian Church Annual Nativity Celebration
DESCRIPTION:For the 13th year\, First Presbyterian Church of Beaufort will present a free weekend-long Annual Nativity Celebration on December 6-8\, featuring more than 150 different nativity scenes from around the world. \n“This year is so special as we have been offered two very large collections to display alongside many of people’s annual favorites\,” said Donna Sheetz\, First Presbyterian’s Volunteer Nativity Event Coordinator. “One is a very unique collection from 95-year-old Lady’s Island resident Ann Errington\, who has been collecting since she was a little girl.” \nErrington’s collection includes nearly 50 worldly nativities. Like many who share nativities for this annual display\, Errington was inspired by last year’s Nativity Celebration and wanted to gift hers from around her home and in her attic for all to enjoy. \nSheetz said First Presbyterian Church of Beaufort is preparing for more than 700 adults and children for this community-wide Advent tradition. Like other pieces of art\, many collectors have a story to share – some nativity collectors have grand stories of travel\, gifts\, or inheritance\, while others found their treasures in a local thrift store. \n“Whether you want to bring your spouse\, friends or grandchild – this weekend-long display is a great way to slow down\, reflect\, learn about other cultures\, and begin the anticipating season of Christmas\,” said Sheetz. \nThe Nativity Celebration will be located in historic downtown Beaufort in the First Presbyterian Church of Beaufort’s Fellowship Hall located at 1201 North Street\, Beaufort\, SC 29902. This event is free to the public\, has easy parking\, and is handicap accessible. \nThe display will be open Friday\, December 6 and Saturday\, December 7 from 10:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. and Sunday\, December 8 from 12:00-3:00 p.m. All ages are welcome.

SUMMARY:Book Launch and Reading for Jared Madison\, Author of The 30 Day Guide to Inner Peace
DESCRIPTION:The nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center will host a book launch for Beaufortonian Jared Madison\, author of The 30 Day Guide to Inner Peace\, on Sunday\, December 8\, from noon to 2:00 p.m.\, at the Conroy Center (601 Bladen St.\, Beaufort). Free and open to the public. Books will be available for sale and signing. Light refreshments provided. Please call in advance to reserve: (843) 379-7025. \nAbout the Book: \nOne of three writers of the “Wholly Holistics” column in Lowcountry Weekly and host of the blog\, “Magical Minute”(Instagram and TikTok @themagicalminute)\, Jared Madison has penned a self-help book for people who want more peace in their lives. In The 30 Day Guide to Inner Peace\, Madison shares the method that helped him find his own inner peace through an immersion into positive life changes\, a day at a time\, for 30 days. \nEach day offers a message and a practice. For example\, the practice for Day 7 suggests that whenever you feel stuck\, take a nap. Napping involves letting go\, accepting\, and getting comfortable with the seeming non-movement you’re experiencing. Purely practical. \nRepresentative chapters include: “Judge Not\,” “Radical Acceptance\,” “What Do You Fear?” “What No Longer Serves You?” “Peace Through Forgiveness\,” and “Making a Loving Commitment to Yourself.” \nAccording to Madison\, to attain inner peace\, you must look inside yourself with a clear mind\, see and accept whatever you observe\, change the things you don’t like\, and move ahead.“Life gives us no shortage of experiences that may normally trigger an adverse reaction within us\,” says Madison. “However\, [in this book] you are given the tools to counteract your reactiveness. Instead\, you will find yourself responding.”  \nAbout the Author:Jared Madison is an entrepreneur and business owner\, an artist\, a writer\, a Reiki practitioner\, a student of quantum physics\, and a passionate traveler who has spent his life being a student of self-development. Realizing the link between science and spirituality\, Madison began studying quantum physics in 2014 by attending Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s free online quantum physics classes. From there Madison would go on to obtain an associate’s degree in Math & Science\, with plans to further his education in the field of Cell Development and Genetics. In 2015\, Madison launched a successful clothing brand company based in Tempe\, Arizona\, with a focus on meaningful spiritually symbolic design graphics. Today his clothing company has grown into 4 distinct brands with a remolded business blueprint launching in early 2025. In 2020\, Madison returned to Beaufort\, after a successful stent in Los Angeles\, and began the realization and life changes which have now culminated in The 30 Day Guide To Inner Peace\, his third book. Madison is engaged to fiancé Kanani Robinson and is more than proud to call his mother one of his best friends. He has a fur child named Mama Kitty.
