Daily Reflections & Prayers for Advent

Walk through the sacred weeks of Advent — Hope, Faith, Joy, and Love — with a daily reflection and prayer to prepare your heart for the coming of Christ.

Light a Candle for Advent

Advent is a season of joyful expectation — a time to slow down, reflect, and make room for the light of Christ. Each day offers a brief Scripture, meditation, and prayer inspired by the Advent themes of Hope, Faith, Joy, and Love.

Use these reflections in your morning devotion, family prayer, or quiet time. Together we wait in hope, trusting in the promise of Emmanuel — God with us.
