Advent

Advent is Latin for coming.During Advent we are preparing for the birth of Jesus. We do this by going to church four weeks before Christmas on a sunday. Every sunday four weeks before Christmas we light a candle on our Advent Wreath to show how close we are getting to the birth of Jesus.We do this because Jesus is the light of the world so when we light all the candles it shows us that the light of the world is here. An Advent Wreath has five candles three purple,one pink and one white.The wreath is in a circle shape to remind us that Gods love never ends.
