3rd Friday of Advent: We light the 3rd candle on the Advent Wreath representing “PEACE.”

On December 14 we light the 3rd candle on the Advent Wreath. This is a long time tradition for HCC to remember the month leading up to Christmas by reading appropriate scriptures and prayers for the week’s theme and lighting the candles in the wreath. Jesus is the light of the world, and as we get closer to the day marked to remember his birth, more candles are light each week. At HCC, since we meet on Friday’s for our weekly worship service, we observe the Advent weeks from Friday to Friday. This week, we will focus on the theme of PEACE!
