Wreaths for Advent

We Prepare: Advent Wreaths

The people in darkness have seen a great Light.

After reading and discussing the Prophecy of Light from the book of Isaiah, we created our own Advent wreaths to help us prepare for the coming of The Light.


The munchkins traced and cut our hand prints to create the leaves.


Then they glued them to "darkness", creating the base of the wreath.


The Advent colored candles were added...three purple, one pink.
What a joy it is to watch as the munchkins learn the meaning of each candle, color and our prayers to go with each.


The center Christ candle was added...


...and so was the "light". 


(But not too much!)



Beautiful!
Christ is Light.  In Him there is no darkness.

Until next time...
Giggles,
Mrs. D.
