The Season of Advent
Advent is a time of preparation and began on Sunday 27th November. Advent begins the cycle of the Liturgical Year and focuses on the coming of Jesus. There are four candles on an Advent wreath, three purple and one pink. The purple are lit on the first, second and fourth Sunday of Advent and the pink candle is lit on the third Sunday. The first candle symbolises hope, the second faith, the third joy and the fourth peace.
