Novena de Aguinaldos in English (Christmas Advent Prayer)
In Colombia, Christmas has to be different to the rest. But different doesn't mean odd, its fun!. For a start, it's the "Niño Dios" (Infant Jesus) who brings the gifts to Colombian children on Christmas Eve at midnight. People do not just go to the Midnight Mass , but start advent on December the 7th with the Night of Candles . Soon thereafter we start praying our own Novena de Aguinaldos ( Advent prayers).
