About the event
The Season of Advent
Both Lent and Advent are seasons of waiting, preparation, and penance. During Lent, we await Christโs return from 40 days in the desert, His loving sacrifice for us, and Resurrection. In Advent, we prepare for His birth. The birth and resurrection of Christ are intertwined, and their connection is quite significant theologically. Yet, these seasons of waiting look different for us โ Advent is a uniquely joyous and hopeful season in the Church.
We light candles amidst the darkness. We find warmth in the cold, dark winter season. And we come together as friends and family to celebrate the coming of our Savior.
Advent is also the beginning of a new liturgical year. (This Advent season marks the start of Year C.)
We begin the year anew, renewed by His birth.
