Traditionally, Advent is a period of prayer, penance and preparation to celebrate Christ’s first coming. The Third Sunday in Advent is commonly referred to as “Rejoice Sunday”, a reference to the Epistle (1 Thess. 5:16-24: “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing”) and the Old Testament Reading (Is. 61:1-4, 8-11: “I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation”).
