Christ-Light
The orange represents the world.
The gum drops remind us of God's good gifts to us (through the 4 seasons).
The red ribbon is a reminder of the blood of Jesus gave for us.
The candle represents Christ, the light of the world.
How are you celebrating advent?
Interesting.

How cool -- apparently it's a Moravian tradition that came into the Anglican Church in Britain in 1968. I think I'll show it to the ladies who do our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd for the little kids.
