The first candle of Advent, lit on the first Sunday (November 30, 2025), symbolizes hope and is often called the “Prophet’s Candle” or “Prophecy Candle.”

This purple candle represents the anticipation of the Messiah foretold by Old Testament prophets, reminding believers of God’s promises fulfilled in Jesus’ birth.

It invites reflection on enduring hope amid trials, drawing from scriptures like Isaiah 9:6-7 and Jeremiah 29:11.
