First week of advent

Hope as we wait for Jesus second coming.

The word “advent” means “coming”. The Church teaches us that during Advent we wait for two comings of Christ: we prepare to celebrate Christmas, when Christ first came into the world; and, we wait for Christ’s second coming at the end of time. Advent begins at sundown the eve of the fourth Sunday before Christmas and concludes at sundown on Christmas Eve. The First Sunday of Advent also heralds the beginning of the new Church Year, or Liturgical Year.

Take a breather from the hustle and bustle of the week and enjoy this first Sunday of advent. As you may already know, advent is the season of anticipation, hope, joy and expectation. This season is filled with hopes, dreams, and aspirations.💜 #advent #firstsundayofadvent

Advent, the four Sundays leading up to Christmas, is a time of anticipation and preparation for the birth of Jesus Christ. People often light candles on an Advent wreath to represent different aspects of the season. The first Sunday of Advent is often marked by the lighting of the first candle, which can represent hope. It is a time to reflect on the hope that we have in Jesus, and to prepare our hearts for His coming. #ChristianChain #Advent #ChristmasSeason #TrendingFaith
