Summary
The word Advent means arrival or coming. The advent wreath is used to during the season of advent (the month before Christmas) to celebrate and remind us of what we are really celebrating. This event will be a time for families to put together an advent wreath after service. Each family will build their wreath together while we play Christmas music and have a few cookies. Each Sunday after, you will ,as a family, light a candle on your wreath, read a portion of scripture, short devotional, and prayer. It is a great tradition that will help you discuss all that Christmas truly represents. We will supply all the materials, instructions, scriptures, devotionals, and prayers at the event. If your family cannot attend but would still like to do this, we can make a packet with all the things in it so you can do it as your schedule allows.
