Christmas Tradition Celebrating Advent with Kelly Hale
Show Notes

Does your heart long to start a family Christmas tradition? Me too! Children's pastor of Lifesong Stockton shares her family Christmas tradition of advent and how she started it. This was my first time hearing of Advent, so I'm asking questions many of you may have as well. Kelly is so anointed in children and family ministry, and I love learning from her. I'm so glad we get to have her on for her second time on the podcast!

Enjoy the FIRST Christmas episode here on AWWF the podcast!

This episode is airing on November 29th, 2022 (Tuesday). You can start your first advent Sunday this Sunday December 3 (Saturday). And then light the fifth candle on the actual Christmas Day!

_________________________________________
The first candle (purple) symbolizes hope – the hope that the Messiah would come

The second candle (purple) symbolizes love – Gods love towards us for sending His Son Jesus to save us from our sins

The third candle (pink) symbolizes joy – the joy we find in Christ and His coming

The fourth candle (purple) symbolizes peace – the peace that comes in knowing Christ as Lord and Savior

The fifth candle is the Christ candle (white in center) which symbolizes purity

The wreath is always in the center of our table so everyday we are reminded of the Advent season.
