Purple is the color of Advent, except on the third Sunday which is called “Gaudete Sunday”. The pink candle is a reminder that the Lord’s coming is almost here. In the middle of this Advent Season, we are called to look to the future in hope and joy.
El color litúrgico del Adviento es el morado, excepto para el tercer domingo, que es el “Domingo de Gaudete”. Esta semana la vela de la corona de Adviento es de color rosado para hacer énfasis en el gozo de que la venida del Señor está cerca.
