Advent

Advent is the four-week period before Christmas when Christians look forward to celebrating the first coming of Jesus as a baby, and when they also reflect on their anticipation of Jesus' second coming. A traditional symbol of Advent celebration is the wreath with four candles, one lit on each Sunday of Advent. Advent calendars help youngsters count the days until Christmas, while providing opportunities to discuss Advent's meaning with them. Dicksons Gift Shop can help make your Advent celebration extra special with our unique Advent candle wreaths and Advent calendars.
