THE TIME-HONORED ADVENT WREATH

While not formally observed in all churches, the Advent season is often recognized within modern church services by the weekly lighting of the four candles of the Advent wreath. On Christmas Eve, a fifth center candle is lit, signifying the arrival of Jesus and the completion of the season. During candlelight services, it is often from this Christ candle that the flame is distributed to the entire congregation.

The rich symbolism of Jesus' light spreading to believers, as well as the weekly focus on the traditional themes of hope, peace, joy, and love, can help make Christmas more than just a single day of celebration, but an entire season filled with excitement, warmth, and wonder.
