FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 29

The name of the season of Advent originated from the Latin word, adventus, which means “coming”. Our Advent season is a time of expectation and waiting for the coming of Christ – we prepare for his second coming as we celebrate his first coming. How will you prepare for Christ’s coming? Just remembering what was, or preparing for what will be? Come, join in the preparations.

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who remain, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. — 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (NASV)
