Word of the Day: Wreath
Christmas wreaths are a standard decoration around the holidays.
You’ll see them hanging on people’s doors or placed on their dining room table.
The green symbolizes life and the round shape symbolizes everlasting life.
You may notice that some are placed on tables or other flat surfaces and have four red candles.
These are advent wreaths, and each candle represents one of the four Sundays before Christmas.
Sometimes you will see a white candle in the middle of the advent wreath which symbolizes Christmas Day – the birth of Christ.
