The Advent season is a time of anticipation and preparation for the birth of Jesus Christ. At River Of Life Assemblies Int’l, we welcome you to embark on a spiritual journey that will deepen your faith and foster a sense of community within our society.
What is Advent?
Advent, derived from the Latin word 'adventus' meaning 'coming', is a significant period observed by Christians worldwide. It covers the four Sundays leading up to Christmas, symbolizing the four centuries of waiting for the birth of Jesus.
Embracing the Meaning of Advent
Advent is a time to reflect, hope, and prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus. It reminds us of the profound love and sacrifice that God demonstrated by sending His only Son to be our Savior. As a community, we come together during this season to commemorate this incredible event.
Exploring Advent Traditions
Advent Wreath
The Advent wreath, with its four candles symbolizing hope, peace, joy, and love, is a common tradition during this season. Each candle is lit on successive Sundays, representing the growing light of Christ in our lives as we approach Christmas.
Advent Calendar
A beloved tradition for families, the Advent calendar helps us count down the days until Christmas. Opening a door or window each day reveals a small surprise or symbolizes a part of the biblical narrative leading to the birth of Jesus.
Impact of Advent in Our Community and Society
