*Some information about the Advent
For the western Christian Church, “advent” is the period of anticipation and preparation toward Christmas, which symbolizes the coming of Christ in the material world, the welcoming and receipt of the spirit of Christ in the heart of the believer, and the second anticipated presence of Christ on earth.
What I find interesting is that the word “advent” derives from the latin word “adventus”, which means “coming”. In the Greek version of the religious texts, the word “advent” translates the Greek word “παρουσία”, which means “presence”.
It refers to the coming, the advent, the presence of the spirit of a birth that is said to have come as a reminder of love.
Practices that relate to the period of the Advent and the anticipation and preparation period, include among others, the widely known Advent Calendars, the four-candle wreath, as well as fasting and daily prayer until the day of Christmas.
