Christmas Day!

God of love, Father of all,
the darkness that covered the earth
has given way to the bright dawn of your Word made flesh.
Make us a people of this light.
Make us faithful to your Word
that we may bring your life to the waiting world.
Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
(From The Roman Missal)

Today is Christmas. Today, we light the four candles. (three purple candles and the pink candle). We also light the center white candle.
The first Sunday, we lit the candle of hope.
The second Sunday, we lit the candle of love.
The third Sunday, we lit the candle of joy.
The fourth Sunday, we lit the candle of peace.
Today, we also light the center candle. This candle represents Jesus. When we light this candle, we remember Jesus' birth. Our waiting  has ended.
