Our Journey to Christmas
Advent – Hope, Peace, Love and Joy
Advent is the beginning of the church year for most churches in the Western tradition, it begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas Day, which is sometime the last Sunday in November and ends on Christmas Eve at sundown. Sometimes the fourth Sunday of Advent is Christmas Eve.
The term Advent comes via Ole English from the Latin adventus (arrival). In Advent, we are anticipating the arrival of the baby Jesus as well as the Second Coming of Christ.
Most congregations journey through Advent with the lighting of the Advent wreath candles each Sunday, culminating with the lighting of the Christ candle at the centre on Christmas Eve.
Liturgical Color: Blue
The color, blue symbolizes hope. Blue is a primary color and a cool color on the color wheel, associated with depth, stability, healing, tranquility, faith, wisdom and trust. Blue is also the color often used for Mary the mother of Jesus.
