Advent is a four-week season dedicated to reflective preparation for the arrival, "advent", of Jesus Christ's Nativity at Christmas time as well and Christ's expected return in the Second Coming. During this important event on the church calendar, each week of Advent focuses on a different theme - hope, peace, joy, and love. Christians from all denominations and backgrounds celebrate Advent in different ways but all focus on the anticipation of waiting for the arrival of Jesus.

​

During this Advent season, 938 Church will be doing a series called "Why He Came: The Mission of Christmas." You may be wondering, "Why did Jesus come? Why do we celebrate his birth at Christmas?" In this advent series, we will look at some specific reasons for why Jesus came, lived, died and rose again, and why this is good news for all of us. ​
