Wishing everyone a wonderful Advent Season!
Advent week 1 – Hope: Prophecy Candle (purple)
Advent week 2 – Peace: Bethlehem Candle (purple)
Advent week 3 – Joy: Shepherd’s Candle (pink)
Advent week 4 – Love: Angel’s Candle (purple)
The candles and wreath are a sign of our preparation of the birth of Jesus. We light each candle on their corresponding week leading up to Christmas day. Each candle symbolizes a virtue, an opportunity to meditate on the hope, peace, joy, and love of Christ Jesus during this expectant season.
A voice of one calling: “In the wilderness prepare the way for the LORD ; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.”
