The Advent wreath

The third Sunday of Advent brings us to Joy. The color pink represents rejoicing. We light the previous two purple candles and then light this week’s pink one. Rejoicing is our response to the Good News — joy that our Messiah has come. The traditions of Advent include the color of dark “royal” purple or Sarum blue (from the Medieval Sarum rite). Both symbolize preparation, penitence and royalty to welcome the new King. The purple of Advent is also the color of suffering used during Lent and Holy Week. This points to an important connection between Jesus’ birth and death. The Christmas season gives a month-long focus on celebrating God and what he does for us. It fills my heart with awe and brings a smile to my face when I consider how generous and kind he is. He is loving and good and gave us the best Christmas gift — the opportunity to receive eternal life and a close relationship with him.
