Advent 2026
Advent means the arrival or coming of an important person, event, or invention. The word comes from the Latin adventus, meaning "coming." As followers of Jesus, Advent is a season of intentionally preparing our hearts for the celebration of the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
During this Advent season, we invite you to participate in a way that works best for you and your household. There are several options available, allowing you to choose the rhythm and practices that fit your season of life.
The goal isn't to add another item to your holiday to-do list or to do everything perfectly. Instead, Advent is an opportunity to slow down, step away from the busyness of the season, and connect with God spiritually as we anticipate and celebrate Christ's coming.
In John 15, Jesus reminds us to remain connected to Him, the true Vine. That's the heart of Advent. Together, we'll practice staying attached to Christ amid the noise, distractions, and demands of Christmas preparations.
Let's make room for Christ this Advent season and prepare our hearts for the joy of His coming.
