The season of Advent has begun for many in the Christian tradition. This is a time of prayer, reflection and waiting for the birth of Jesus Christ. Advent is also the beginning of the church year. It’s a time of celebration and joy, too.
Christmas is on its way. Enjoy the journey.
Today is the third Sunday of Advent – Known as “Gaudete,” (rejoice) Sunday, the pink candle in the Advent Wreath is a reminder of the explosive power of the season. To all who celebrate be sure to rejoice in the season.
Today is the second Sunday of Advent. Today’s theme is Peace. In this world we live in, we need peace of spirit, body, and mind. It is also very much needed in our communities where we face violence and hatred. So for the first two Sundays of Advent, there is hope and peace. Let there be peace on Earth and let it begin with me.
Today is a new month in December and for many in the Christian tradition the first Sunday of the season of Advent which leads to Christmas. Let’s hope for good days ahead as we conclude 2024.
Today is the fourth Sunday of Advent and it’s also Christmas Eve. It’s been a time of waiting for the Christ child to come. Christmas is almost here.
Today is the third Sunday of Advent. Joy is the theme for today’s celebration. The candle is pink which is different from the other three that are purple. We all need more joy in our lives. God be with you all good people.
