[Sundaycommunity] SONG PROGRAM for Sunday December 15

[Brian Halferty]

Hi Sunday Community,
We are making our way through the Season of Advent.  This coming Sunday, Dec. 15, 2024, is the Third Sunday of Advent, and the program of songs and responses for the liturgy is attached.
This Sunday is also traditionally known as "Gaudete Sunday", because the opening Antiphon at the start of the liturgy, in the original Latin version, begins with the word "Gaudete", which means "Rejoice".  The vestments worn by the celebrant on this day were the colour of pink.  Officially, the colour was called "Rose", but let's face it: if it's "Rose" then it is a pink rose, for sure. And it was always explained that this Sunday was like a little break in the somber time of Advent during which we could look forward to and experience some of the joy of the approaching time of Christmas.
Best wishes to all.
Brian
