Advent Wreath

An Advent wreath is a circular decoration used during the Advent season leading up to Christmas. It typically features four candles—three purple and one pink—each representing different themes such as hope, peace, joy, and love. Sometimes a fifth candle, called the Christ candle, is added to symbolize Jesus. Each week, a new candle is lit to mark the progression of Advent, creating a visual countdown to Christmas. The wreath’s greenery symbolizes eternal life, and the circular shape represents God's infinite love. It fosters reflection and anticipation during this meaningful period.
