What is Advent, anyway?

By Peggy Clores

The season of Advent begins on Sunday, November 27, 2022.  For some of our readers, especially RCIA candidates, the meaning and traditions of this Season may be a brand-new experience. For others, you may not fully realize the meaning behind the beautiful things we do at this time of year.  Here is a mini Advent lesson.  Hopefully, you can find 10 minutes of “quiet time” to review the information and gain the most from this Season.

LESSON ON THE SEASON OF ADVENT

At this time, we are “waiting for the Messiah” and “preparing Him room” in our hearts.

We are to be open to what He wants to change in us in order to for us to become more of who we are intended to be.

 

 

This second link gives you a fairly complete look at the meaning and practices during this season.

Wishing you and your families a very blessed Advent Season!

 

Peggy
