It is called the prophecy candle. Isaiah foretold the birth of Jesus. The candle symbolizes our desire and hope for the return of our Lord Jesus.

We have 4 advent candles and a white one for Christmas Eve. The first,second, and the fourth candle are purple and the third one is pink. During these 4 weeks, we prepare the coming of our Lord.
