The First Sunday of Advent

What is Advent? Advent celebrates the past, present, and future coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He who was born in Bethlehem, died on the cross, and ascended into heaven will come to be our Judge! That same Lord comes to us weekly in Holy Communion and in His Word preached to be with us and bring us the gifts of heaven. This Sunday we will consider Christ’s entry into Jerusalem and His arrival on the scene to be our Savior.
