Cokesbury is your one stop destination for Advent. Advent focuses on preparing for the coming of Christ. The term is derived from the Latin word adventus, meaning to come. The season or period of Advent always includes the four Sundays before Christmas Day. (It begins with the Sunday closest to November 30 and ends with Christmas Eve day.) Because December 25 does not always fall on the same day of the week, the number of days in the Advent season varies from year to year. A fun way to teach the meaning of Christmas and capture the imagination is with Christmas children’s books and gifts. What better way to teach a child the true meaning of the season than through the beautifully illustrated pages of a storybook or story-telling enhanced through music.
