REC News

Advent is a liturgical season consisting of four Sundays leading up to Christmas and ending on Christmas Eve.  It is an Old English word coming from the Latin adventus (arrival) or advenire (to come).  It is a special time dedicated to the remembrance of Jesus’ coming as a baby over 2,000 years ago.  The people in the Old Testament waited a long time for the coming of Jesus.  During Advent, we join those people in our own waiting as we anticipate the second coming of Jesus at the end of time.

The liturgical calendar starts each year on the 1st Sunday of Advent. 

Year B will commence this Sunday, the 3rd December.
