Hi guys,

In our church in Canada (Presbyterian), we follow an advent liturgy with a wreath and candles. Each week a member of the congregation reads the liturgy and lights a candle. Last week it was the candle of "Peace". The sermon usually touched on the subject of the liturgy.

Is this what happens in Lutheran churches? Or is this just a Reformed practice? I'm sure it happens in many denominations.

Bob
