Today, we begin Advent- the first season of the Christian year!

Advent comes before Christmas and speaks of “the coming or arrival of Christ”.

Advent remembers God coming into the world as child.

Advent invites us to let Christ come and rule our everyday living.

Advent looks toward that day when Christ will come in glory and set the world aright.

How can we be ready for Christ’s coming?

Come let us worship!

Come let us ponder the wonder of God’s love lavished on us.

Come let our souls find worth and wisdom in Christ.

Come Lord Jesus.

We are waiting.

We are watching.

Fill us with Your wonder.

We light this advent candle praying.

Come Lord Jesus!

We are waiting for you!
