Glory Be to God and Peace to His People on Earth (Gloria in Excelsis Deo-Angelic Hymn)

Quilted Advent Calendar by LeeAnn A.

Each year Advent is celebrated for the 4 Sundays prior to the 25th of December. A traditional Advent calendar, both spiritual and secular, counts down to Christmas Eve, beginning December 1. Children of all ages, through the use of an Advent calendar discover Peace through the anticipation, excitement, and reflection leading to the birth of our promised savior, Jesus Christ.

The angel of the Lord proclaims, "Glory to God in the Highest and on earth Peace, Goodwill toward men." —Luke 2:14 (KJV)
