Pope Benedict XVI arrives to celebrate a vespers service to mark the beginning of Advent, the period leading up to Christmas when the faithful mark the birth of Christ, in St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican, Saturday, Nov. 27, 2010.

This year, the Vatican urged bishops around the world to make the service a vigil for "nascent human life".
