What is Advent?

Advent is a time of expectation and hope. “Advent” means “arrival” or “coming,” and it prompts us to pause each day in December and remember why Jesus came at Christmas. Traditions vary by country, but common ways of commemorating Jesus’ birth are through Advent candles, calendars, wreaths, and such. Ideally, any Advent tradition should involve families in a fun activity each day of December, helping them remember why we celebrate Christmas.


The purple candles point ahead to Jesus’ sacrifice and death. 
The candles; each one represents one of the four Sundays of Advent  -  Three (or four) are purple and one is pink (rose) to symbolise Gaudete Sunday.  The fifth candle is white which is usually lit on Christmas Day
