DESCRIPTION:Gaudete is Latin for "Rejoice!" Gaudete Sunday is always the th
 ird Sunday of Advent. Advent is usually a time of quiet reflection and wai
 ting for Christmas\, but Gaudete Sunday interrupts our silence and repenta
 nce with shouts of joy. The liturgical color is memorable--one of only two
  days in the entire Church calendar that the robes and paraments are pink!
  It is supposed to awaken us to the coming promise of healing and redempti
 on in Jesus Christ. Join us for a special pink and celebratory service tha
 t Sunday at 10:30am. Then\, immediately following our normal service\, we 
 will have a brief service of healing. During that time\, anyone who is in 
 need of comfort or healing in mind\, body\, or spirit\, are invited forwar
 d to be prayed over individually and to receive the oil of anointing. This
  is an ancient and physical reminder to those who are ill\, suffering\, or
  grieving that the promises of Christ remain steadfast and that you are su
 rrounding by a community who is here to pray for you and support you. Feel
  free to invite along any of those in your life who may be in need of extr
 a encouragement and prayer.
