Today marks the last day of Advent.
The word Advent means "coming" and all season we have been preparing for Jesus to come into the world! When Jesus came he brought with him Hope, Peace, Joy and Love. and over the last several weeks we have learned about those gifts and how we can share them with others.
Today we light the Christ candle.
The white candle of your wreath represents the true Light come into the world and
is to be placed in the center of your wreath.
What are the special traditions you and your family have for celebrating Christmas? Which is your favorite?
Prayer
Dear God, Thank you for the gift of Jesus and the hope, peace, joy and love he brought to our world. Amen.
