Today, the Third Sunday of Advent, is also called Gaudete Sunday. This name comes from the antiphon we use at Mass today. The antiphon, in Latin “Gaudete in Domino semper: iterum dico, gaudete” or in English “Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I say, rejoice” has been used on this day since the ninth century. So today reminds us both of the joy of expectation of the coming of our Saviour at Christmas and of the traditions of our ancient faith which we continue to celebrate in our Mass today. In the spirit of the joy of expectation, the Church marks today with rose-coloured vestments and we light the rose-coloured candle in our Advent Wreath.
Coffee, tea, mince pies and stollen will be served in the Parish Hall at St. Teilo’s after the 10am Mass today. At the same time the Parish Christmas Raffle draw will take place. Why not come along and celebrate the Joy of Gaudete Sunday with your fellow parishioners? All are welcome.
