Advent season is a reminder of Christ as the “Light of the World” coming into our lives.
The fourth light symbolises Jesus as the light in our lives. It is called the Angel’s Light, reminding us of the Angels heralding Christ’s birth.
The 4th Sunday of Advent symbolises Peace with the “Angel’s Candle” reminding us of the message of the angels: “Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men.”
