1. Advent, coming, arrival, reaching
Usage: arrival that has been awaited (especially of something momentous)
2. Advent, son
Usage: the season including the four Sundays preceding Christmas. It begins
on the Sunday nearest November 30 and covers four Sundays. Because the day
it begins changes from year to year, so does the length of each Advent
Season.
This year Advent begins December 2 with the Advent Festival in McPhail Hall
at 6 pm for crafts, soup dinner and worship. Come join the fun! All ages
will find a way to celebrate the season of Advent.
