Advent is a season observed in many Western Christian churches as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for the celebration of the Nativity of Jesus at Christmas. The term is an anglicized version of the Latin word adventus, meaning "coming".The season offers the opportunity to share in the ancient longing for the coming of the Messiah, and to be alert for his Second Coming.
