The Advent Candles

Each week of Advent, a new candle is lit. Each of the candles represents a different aspect of Advent and the Christmas story.

	The Prophecy Candle	The Prophecy Candle reminds us that Jesus came into the world at the exact time and in the exact way God said He would through the many prophecies of the Old Testament concerning Jesus.
	The Bethlehem Candle	The Bethlehem Candle reminds us that Jesus was born in the City of David and that He is the King of God's people, just as David was in the Old Testament.
	The Shepherd's Candle	The Shepherd's Candle reminds us that the Lord Jesus came to common people like us. God's good news of salvation in Christ is for all people, no matter how rich or poor they are.
	The Angel's Candle	The Angel's Candle reminds us that God sent His Holy Angels to announce that the Christ Child was born in Bethlehem.
