It is Christmas Season! It is the time that we remember the first coming of Christ. We call this time Advent, which is derived from the Latin word, adventus, which literally means arrival or coming. Our family does the advent wreath, lighting each of the four candles as the weeks go by. During this Christmas season there are lights all around, reminding us of Jesus, the light of the world. Christmas is a time of anticipation, waiting for Christ. It is not about presents under the tree, yes it helps us to remember that Jesus is the greatest gift of all, but Christmas is about the Christ-child who was born in Bethlehem. He came to die for us, to save us from our sins. That is what Christmas is about. Have a Merry Christmas!
