This Sunday we celebrate the more solemn of a pair of special Sundays which happen during the two major penitential (aka violet/purple) seasons of the Church calendar: the Fourth Sunday of Lent, Laetare Sunday. Laetare Sunday occurs during Lent, and a similar celebration, Gaudete Sunday, is always the third Sunday of Advent. The Roman Missal states that “the color…rose may be used. Instrumental music is permitted, and the altar may be decorated with flowers.” The implication is that in general, those things are NOT permitted on the other Sundays of Lent. We also note that during Lent we do not sing the “Alleluia,” which is replaced with a different refrain, and we do not sing the Gloria. Even though it is Laetare Sunday, we still abstain from the Alleluia and the Gloria.
The meaning of these “Rose” Sundays is a reminder that, even in the midst of the seriousness and somberness of Lent (or, to a lesser extent, Advent), we are not play-acting as if we don’t know about the Resurrection. We will, in Holy Week, recall the suffering and Passion of our Lord, but we don’t pretend that we don’t know what happened on Easter Sunday. So a Lenten Sunday with a hint of Easter joy is a reminder that we still live in the light of the empty tomb even though in the liturgy we are remembering the Cross and its reality.
My favorite metaphor for these special Sundays continues to be the image of a sunrise: one of the first colors you often see, even before you can see the disk of the sun itself, is a slight but increasing shift to purples and pinks and oranges before the sun itself finally appears. This Rose Sunday is a reminder that the celebration of Easter Sunday is coming near.

Pope Francis declared 2025 as the Jubilee Year of Hope and has called for this Jubilee Year to "be a moment of genuine, personal encounter with the Lord Jesus.” (Spes Non Confundit, 1). Christ is truly the "Hope that does not disappoint."
As Pilgrims of Hope, we are encouraged to draw closer to God through prayer, study, formation, and pilgrimage. The Diocese of Colorado Springs website offers a number of resources to assist on your journey, including recommendations on books, formations/ studies, ministry resources, podcasts, prayers, and more!

“As Catholic Bishops of Colorado, we approach the issue of immigration with prayerful hearts, seeking to guide our communities in a spirit of charity, justice, mercy, and prudence. The call to welcome the stranger is woven into the fabric of our faith, and in standing with immigrants, it is our first concern that they know the love of Jesus Christ and their dignity as human beings. We also recognize the responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of our communities, as well as passing on the teaching of the Church on immigration to those who govern.”
