Advent Season

Advent Season is a very special time of year that sometimes gets lost in the bright lights of the Christmas season it precedes. This year, Advent Season will start on Sunday, November 28th and run all the way to Friday, December 24th.
The Advent Season is all about reflecting on how we can prepare our hearts and homes for Christ’s birth in the world as it is today. It is a time for faith communities and families to remember, through prayer, reflections, special music, and good deeds what the true meaning of Jesus’ birth is.
The Advent season invites us to step away from what can be a frenzied time of parties and shopping to consider how we commemorate the birth of Jesus, one of the holiest times in Christian faith. The color for Advent is the same as for Lent, a time of preparation and reflection – purple (or deep blue.)
