The Advent Wreath has had a significant resurgence in recent years. Because of the growing commercialization of the Christmas season, many families have found that the Advent Wreath has deepened their appreciation of the true meaning of this Holy Season.
The Purple Advent Candle represents penance and longing and is lit during the first, second and fourth weeks. A pink advent candle (sold separately) symbolizes joy and is lit during the third week in glad anticipation of the birth of Jesus. Evergreens, a symbol of eternal life and purple ribbons symbolic of penance are often added in preparation of the Lord’s coming.
