Celebrating Advent involves spending time in spiritual preparation for the coming birth of Jesus Christ at Christmas. Advent is a period of spiritual preparation in which we make ourselves ready for the coming, or birth of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Celebrating Advent typically involves a season of prayer, fasting, and repentance, followed by anticipation, hope, and joy. The word advent comes from the Latin term adventus meaning "arrival" or "coming," particularly the coming of something having great importance. Advent season, then, is both a time of joy-filled, anticipatory celebration of the arrival of Jesus Christ and a preparatory period of repentance, meditation, and penance. Advent marks the beginning of the church year.
