The Season of Advent Begins
Today we light the first purple candle on the Advent wreath—the Candle of Hope (or the Prophet’s Candle). As we enter this sacred four-week season of preparation, we quiet our hearts and look forward with joyful anticipation to the birth of Jesus.

Weekly Focus: Pray together as a family this week for hope in our world and in our homes.
