The God who once came among us in the person of Christ has promised to come again.  Our salvation is nearer now than at the beginning.  In Advent, celebrate the presence of  “God among us.”  In Advent, like John the Baptist, prepare for the future coming of the Lord.  We robe ourselves with the presence of the Lord God; His ways become our ways.  We seek the Lord; He is the One who turns our darkness into the morning. 

The Sundays of Advent are the four Sundays before Christmas.
