First Sunday of Advent 2024

Sunday, December 1, 2024

"Advent Sunday, also called the First Sunday of Advent or First Advent Sunday, is the first day of the liturgical year in the Western Christian Churches and the start of the Advent season;[1] a time of preparation for the celebration of Christ's birth at Christmas and the return of Christ at the Second Coming. Advent Sunday is the fourth Sunday before Christmas." (Wikipedia)

Dale and I plan to mark it by skipping church.

Ready to put away the fall color schemed Fiesta Ware.

After church Dale and I went to the Lowbrow for brunch. Last Christmas by Wham was playing so I experienced Whamaggedon on the 1st of December. Last year I think I made it to the soltice. Neither Dale nor Dominic, our server, has heard of it so I had to explain. In addition the song was released 40 years ago this year. And I remember when it was new.
