What is your  previous experience with Advent?              How do you plan to celebrate Advent 2021?

In my previous experience with Advent I did not really pay attention to it much, I knew it was going on, but never really celebrated it. I plan to celebrate this Advent by maybe doing an Advent calendar or something along those lines.

My family does an advent calendar at our house and we also have a wreath with the advent candles. I plan to celebrate advent even more this year by going to mass on Sundays and listening to a lot of Christmas music.

My family has a wreath with candles that we light. We will probably do the same this year and I plan to do the same

My past experience with advent is a time of waiting and coming together as a family. This also includes going to mass during advent and praying. This year I plan to continue this tradition with my family while striving to become closer with God.

Advent in the past gets my super excited for Christmas because in elementary school we would talk about it and make crafty advent wreathes and other stuff. This Advent I plan to try to be more patient because the buildup to Christmas is better than Christmas day so I want to just be present and not get to antsy.

For me and my family, advent is a time to get ready for Christmas and get all the Christmas decorations up. We always have advent calendars and its just a joyful time of waiting for Christmas to come. This year, I want to be able to sit in silence more and pray and let Holy Spirit guide me through this advent and this new year.

My family keeps an Advent wreath and an Advent calendar. I hope we do the same this year.

My family doesn't celebrate Advent that much on our own besides a calendar and wreath, but when we go to Mass we celebrate Advent as a community with our church community. For Advent in 2021, we will probably celebrate the same way we always do every year.

My family hasn't done much for advent in the past, but we do have a tradition on Christmas Eve of getting together with my mom's family (we don't see them as often) and then going to midnight mass. We will probably not do that this year because of Covid, but I'm not sure what we will do instead.

My family has a wreath with candles and we go to church during Advent. I will do the same this year and still go to church to celebrate Advent.

1) In the past, I have sung at Mass through out Advent. Also, we always hang up decorations and wreaths.
2) I plan on doing virtual church choirs and possibly singing at Christmas or Christmas Eve mass. We also decorated the house.

Usually as a family we celebrate advent with an advent calendar. I plan on celebrating the same way this year/.

My previous experience with advent is just going to church on Sunday and lighting the four candles every Sunday. I plan to celebrate advent this year by doing the same thing but also try to do some community work.

My family sets up the Christmas tree after we eat thanksgiving dinner. We have an advent calender that we've had in my house since my dad was a kid. This Advent I'm looking forward to having more time to appreciate it and spend time reflecting and with my family.

Advent has always been a complicated holiday for myself. I love to gather and reflect with my family on the past year. However, I always find myself surrounded by work on advent and often have a hard time clearing the stress of it. I hope the next year I can focus more on personal relationships with people rather than drowning myself in work.

in my previous advents, I have done nothing. maybe ill go to penance this year.

Usually we have an advent calendar but other than that I just thought of advent as part of the Christmas season leading up to December 25. Aside from going to mass for advent, I didn't do much for it, this new church year I will try to be more mindful of advent and everything it entails not just including it in the Christmas season.

My experiences with advent was in the past my family has an advent wreath and we light the candle each Sunday as the weeks change. This year we are going to do that same thing.

My family has a wreath that we put up and we light throughout advent. For us it is a time of waiting and great expectance for Christmas and Jesus' birth.

I do not have a previous experience with advent. I have never done it before. I dont plan on celebrating Advent 2021.

My previous experience with advent is the candles my mom lights on the counter on the advent wreath. I think we will do the same this year
