Laetare Sunday - Let Us Rejoice -

Last Sunday was Laetare Sunday, the fourth Sunday in Lent, marked by the color rose.  Here are two stoles that I have that were made by a parishioner from St Richard Catholic Church in Jackson (Jamie Wallace) and by a good friend from Yazoo City who is a Baptist minister (Charlie Carlisle).  The rose color for Laetare Sunday symbolizes joy.


Introit from the Gregorian mass for Laetare Sunday - 
“Rejoice, O Jerusalem: and come together all you that love her: rejoice with joy, you that have been in sorrow: that you may exult, and be filled from the breasts of your consolation.”
