First Sunday of advent this Sunday. Kind of a big event still in the Moravian communities.

Much of it revolves round the church, some is consumer driven and another large part is "tradition", people just like it for their kids.
I have written about these traditions in last years, I will let Rose Pamak, who is originally from Nain, gives her memories of Advent when she was a child.


I took the picture above on Tuesday past when up in the hills. It shows someone on an ATV bringing back an Advent tree.
You wont get that scene now, all the snow has all but been washed away by the rain we have had since. Yuk.
