Why do priests wear rose vestments?

Priests wear rose vestments, also known as pink vestments, on two occasions during the liturgical year: Gaudete Sunday and Laetare Sunday.

Gaudete Sunday is the third Sunday of Advent and marks a shift from the solemnity of the first two weeks of Advent to a more joyful anticipation of Christmas. The word “Gaudete” means “rejoice” in Latin, and the rose vestments signify that joy and hope.

Laetare Sunday is the fourth Sunday of Lent. The word “Laetare” means “rejoice” in Latin, and the rose vestments are worn as a sign of the joy that comes with the promise of Easter.

In both cases, the rose vestments are a visual reminder to the faithful that even in the midst of times of penance and preparation, there is always reason to rejoice and hope.
