Advent Candle Workshop

You are warmly invited to join in this family-friendly event as we learn about the season of Advent, a time of preparation where we anticipate the coming of Jesus into the world. At this workshop, suitable for all ages, participants will create their own set of rolled beeswax Advent candles (5 candles) for use at home. These sweet-smelling candles help mark the four weeks of Advent and the joy of Christmas Day.

Each kit includes the materials necessary to make your Advent candles, and you will receive guidance at the workshop to make them during our time together. You can have multiple people work on a single kit together, or you can order a kit for every person in your group.

We want all people to be able to participate in this workshop, so if the registration fee is a hardship, please contact us to have the fee waived.

St. Hildegard’s Sanctuary is an inclusive, arts-based, contemplative Christian community, with a lived experience that art heals, beauty enlivens, and community roots. We live, work, play, and worship on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples including the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and Səl̓ílwətaʔ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, with deep respect and gratitude. <
