Advent 2022

Advent 2022

Advent is a special period of time in December that’s observed by many Christian traditions, especially those that follow the liturgical church calendar. Advent, a word that means “coming” or “arrival,” is a sacred time of year leading up to Christmas Day—a day we celebrate the birth of Jesus, the Son of God. Just as we look forward to celebrating the first advent of Christ with great joy and gifts on the 25th, we also look forward with hope to a second advent—a time when He comes to rule and reign forever. A prayer we can all be praying this Advent is simply “Come, Lord Jesus, come!” Just as He came the first time as a precious Baby, He will be faithful to come again as a glorious King. Now that’s something to pray about!
