Rejoice in the Lord always; again I say, rejoice! The Lord is near. Philippians 4:4-5

God, you see your people faithfully awaiting the feast of the Lord’s birth.

  Grant, we ask you, that we win through to the joy of that moment of salvation

  and eagerly celebrate it with solemn prayers and rejoicing.

Through Christ our Lord,

GAUDETE SUNDAY

Third Sunday of Advent, so named from the opening antiphon of the Introit Gaudete in Domino semper (Rejoice in the Lord always). On this Sunday rose vestments are permitted in the Eucharistic liturgy. (Etym. Latin gaudete, rejoice.)

Make Room at the Inn of Your Heart

Father, in the wilderness of the Jordan
you sent a messenger to prepare people's hearts
for the coming of your Son.
Help me to hear his words and repent of my sins,
so that I may clearly see the way to walk,
the truth to speak, and the life to live for Him,
our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen

We Await a Savior

We await a Savior,

The Lord Jesus Christ,

Who will reshape the body of our lowliness

After the shape of the body of His splendor.

Temperately, justly, reverently,

Let us live in this world,

Awaiting the blessed hope

And advent of the glory of the great God.
