Today is the second Sunday in Advent; the Bethlehem candle is lit.
The Bethlehem candle reminds us that Jesus was born in Bethlehem. It too is purple, reminding us that it was a King Who was born in the manger.
Song for the day: O Little Town of Bethlehem
(Many protestant churches have changed the color from purple to blue, reserving purple for Lent. I tend to be rather traditional so I still use purple candles.)
