The term “advent” is a Latin word meaning “arrival” or “coming.” The purpose of celebrating Advent is to help us recognize God’s presence in the world by coming down to us the person of His son, Jesus Christ. It is a time for joyful reflection and heartfelt expectation as we look for that same “advent” (“arrival”) in our own lives, both now and in all the days to come.
