The Advent wreath is one of the most popular Christian symbols used in churches and family homes to celebrate the meaning of Advent.
The Catholic Advent wreath has four candles (three purple and one pink/rose) evenly spaced along a circle of evergreen branches. Each component of the Advent wreath has special meaning for Christians who use it as a part of their preparation for Christmas.
