          Gaudete Sunday is the Third Sunday of Advent. The name comes from Gaudete in Domino semper (Rejoice in the Lord always.)     
          The priest may wear rose vestments. The third candle of the Advent wreath may be rose colored.

                     The Introit for Gaudette Sunday is taken from Philippians Chapter 4: 4,5.

       Of the stations kept in Rome the four Sundays of Advent, that at the Vatican basilica is assigned to Gaudette, as being the most important and imposing of the four.

                      In the past, when organs and flowers were forbidden during the Advent Season,       
                           they were permitted during Gaudette Sunday.

The Third Sunday of Advent people are invited to reflect on the JOY they have access to because of their faith in Jesus.

The observance of Gaudete Sunday dates back to the medieval period when the church recognized   
the need to balance the penitential nature of Advent with moments of joy and hope.
