The traditional Advent Wreath has 5 candles. One is lit each week leading up to Christmas, and the final one, the Christ Candle, on Christmas Eve. Each of the first four candles represents a "gift" that Christ brought with His Birth: Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. These aren't just gifts for the people living at the time He was born, but gifts that He continues to give us today. Over the next four weeks, we will prepare our hearts to celebrate Christ's Birth by taking a deeper look at how His first coming gave these gifts, and how we are still recipients of them today.
