Advent means “coming.” It is a time of preparation…getting ready…and waiting and watching. It has also become a season to look
forward with HOPE as we prepare to celebrate Christ’s first “coming” at Christmas, and as we get ready for that future day when he will come
back again as judge and ruler of all. We prepare for Christ’s coming by listening to God’s Word.
We may or may not be able to worship together during the Sundays of Advent, but we can prepare for Christ’s coming by listening to God’s Word. We will light a candle on the Advent wreath each Sunday, adding more and more light as Christmas draws near. Jesus has come and will come again . . . HE IS OUR HOPE!
