What is Advent?

Advent is the season of the year leading up to the celebration of Christ and His birth. The word advent itself means “arrival” or “an appearing or coming into place.”  As followers of Jesus we celebrate the “first advent” or the Incarnation of the Christ-child in December. 


The Advent season lasts for four Sundays and begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas. In anticipation of our celebration of the Christ-child, we have created a guide to help you explore the signs that God gave people before the Messiah was born.
