The Advent wreath
The first candle in the Advent wreath is lit on the first Sunday in Advent. On the second Sunday of Advent, two candles are lit - three on the third - and finally, on the fourth Sunday of Advent, all four candles have been lit. This is a beautiful and relevant tradition, where the number of candles increase in step with the growing darkness of winter, culminating around winter solstice and Christmas.
