Discover the Meaning and Significance of Advent
Advent, derived from the Latin word "adventus," meaning "coming," is a season observed by Christians worldwide. It traditionally begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas and concludes on Christmas Eve. The Advent season holds great significance as it symbolizes the anticipation and preparation for the birth of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
Hope: The First Candle of Advent
Hope is the first theme of Advent, represented by the lighting of the first candle on the Advent wreath. It serves as a beacon of light, reminding us of the hope we find in God's promises. By exploring the scriptures, engaging in heartfelt worship, and participating in community activities, we cultivate this sense of hope in our lives.
Joy: The Second Candle of Advent
Joy is the second candle of Advent, symbolizing the happiness and delight we experience as we draw closer to the celebration of Jesus' birth. Through our vibrant worship services, inspiring sermons, and heartfelt fellowship, we embrace the joy that comes from knowing our Savior has come into the world.
Love: The Third Candle of Advent
The third candle of Advent represents love, a fundamental aspect of our faith. As we reflect upon the unconditional love that God has shown us through the gift of his Son, Jesus Christ, we are compelled to demonstrate love to one another. Our community at Gateway Christian Church cultivates an atmosphere of love, compassion, and acceptance.
Peace: The Fourth Candle of Advent
Peace, the fourth and final candle of Advent, signifies the harmony and tranquility that comes from embracing the message of Christ. During this chaotic world, we spread the message of peace, fostering an environment where all individuals can find solace and comfort in God's presence.
