The First Sunday of Advent is here! ✨ Today we light the Candle of Hope and reflect on the promise of God's light in the world.🕯 #Advent #Hope | PeaceBeWithU

The First Candle: Hope ⁠ The first prayer of Advent season begins with hope. Sometimes called the prophecy candle and represents God's forgiveness of man's sins. ⁠ Look back at the year. What can you give thanks for? Or what prayers are you still waiting to be answered? Bring them before the Lord. God wants to hear them. And in saying them, we become aware of how God is moving in our lives. You might even want to sing a carol as you gaze at your Advent wreath. “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” perhaps.
