It is a ‘One’ and so for us Christians it reminds us of the proper time to be more active within the Church joyful expectation of the birth of Jesus Christ in community and participate actively and regularly Bethlehem. in the celebration of sacraments and deepen our It is a period of about Four Weeks, which begins on the relationship (through the Sacrament of First Sunday after the Solemnity of Christ the King Reconciliation) with the expected Messiah. (34th Sunday; the last Sunday of the ordinary time). The central message is, be awake and remain During Advent, we prepare to receive Jesus Christ at watchful. On the other hand, before you light up Christmas and more than that, Advent is also symbolic your home for Christmas, you must be shining of our Expectation of the second coming of our Lord already. Jesus Christ and just as we prepare for Christmas, we ought to prepare for His second coming.
