English term or phrase: Advent service

Hi,
Could you please help me translate the term "Advent service" into Spanish?

This is the text where it appears: "It was coming up to Christmas and Peter thought it was about time they were more open minded about their beliefs and decided to ask David if he would come along to an Advent service at the church he attended. He was delighted when David accepted his invitation and was there to meet him at the church gate on the agreed day."

As far as I know, the term "advent" means "adviento", but I am not sure if that can be translated into "servicio de adviento". Does that exist?

Thank you very much in advance.
