Second Sunday of Advent History

Advent is a four-week period where Christians prepare for Christmas, the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. For some Christian denominations, this period is also a celebration of the possible return of Christ via his Second Coming. The Second Sunday of Advent represents the birthplace of Christ and hopes for his return.

A tradition in many churches is to light one of four Advent candles for each week of Advent. The candle for the Second Sunday of Advent is purple and symbolizes faith. The Second Sunday of Advent is typically observed by praying, fasting, and doing good deeds.
