Does your family have an Advent wreath? This centuries-old Christian tradition symbolizes God’s infinite love for us and lead us to reflect on the everlasting nature of God. By lighting candles each week, we prepare the way for the Light of the World, Jesus.
We will see an Advent wreath in church, but this tradition can be continued at home as well. In the home, you might place your Advent wreath on an entry or dining table or another location where you, your family, and your guests can enjoy the wreath during the Advent season.
Join fellow parishioners at St. Francis Xavier on Monday, Nov. 24, to make a wreath for your family. Enjoy holiday treats, including a crackling “fire,” and your wreath will be blessed at the end of the evening. Please register at the link below.
