I appreciate when the Celebrant does not make a big deal out of wearing Pink or Rose. I find it distracting when the Celebrant jokes about it at the beginning of Mass or in the homily. It is fine to address why the color is used but not to make fun of it in such a way that it causes laughter. That is just my opinion. It is a tiresome joke to bring up twice a year – every year.

Yep, and the exact same style as well! The priest also insists on calling it rose and not pink haha

Yes, and quite a colorful contrast over his brown Franciscan habit.

Yes….at St. Catherine’s in Wichita Kansas! Fr. R we are a 3 yr. old parish with a brand new Church. Others are closing parishes….we have a NEW one!

Not only does my pastor wear a rose-colored chasuble (reluctantly!), my Missouri Synod Lutheran husband’s pastor does too — and Pastor B’s is fancier than Fr. S’s! *grin* Actually, it could be worse; Pastor B asked his whole congregation to wear something pink — I mean rose — on Gaudete Sunday.

Yes, our pastor donned the “rose”(aka, NOT “pink”!) last Sunday. I made a comment to him on my way out of Mass, asking if it was a coincidence that the 2nd communion song for reflection was “Lo How A ROSE Ere Blooming”!?! He got a laugh out of that one!

Both priest and deacon wore rose.

Nope, because my parish is Ukrainian-Greek Catholic. The UGCC has its own liturgical calendar and does not celebrate Advent; this past Sunday was the Sunday of the Holy Forefathers (ie prophets and patriarchs of the Old Testament.) We also still use blue as a liturgical color for feasts of the Blessed Virgin.

No, we don’t. Our pastor always insists rose is optional. It’s actually become a bit of a running gag between the women of the parish and our pastor. A previous pastor said that he looked like a big Pepto-bismal tablet when he wore the rose chasuble.

Yep. Both priest and deacon decked the rose yesterday.

Our priest had his rose chasuble on on Sunday. Not quite as rose as the one in the picture, mind you.
Dan 1:27 am on December 14, 2011 Permalink |
Yeah Sean, our priest had a lighter shade of pin. . . . I mean “ROSE” as well!
Fr. Jay Finelli 9:24 pm on December 11, 2011 Permalink |
The parish has one of those hot pink vestments, but I have a nice deeper shade of rose.

A rose chasuble in Texas? No, we stick with purple here. Rose does not match the boots.

Yes, my former (now suppressed) parish has one. My former pastor, a Marist priest, always made a remark that he wasn’t wearing pink but rose. The pastor of my current parish conveniently forgot to wear it today even though I’ve seen others.

Rejoice! Joy! Here is a good blog entry about Gaudete Sunday: http://blog.adw.org/2011/12/sweet-beautiful-soul-saving-joy-a-reflection-on-the-epistle-for-the-third-sunday-of-advent/

Not only our priest wears rose on sunday Gaudete, also our parish website!
(In Dutch there is no difference between pink and rose, their both called “roze”. )

Yes, we do. I love to see our priests wearing this color. Thanks to Father Roderick’s podcast several years ago I know why it’s worn.
Lyn F. 11:04 am on December 10, 2011 Permalink |
Yes, we have one at my parish. In fact, I even took a picture of my pastor wearing it. (If only he would smile more in pictures…)

My pastor resists wearing the one my parish has. I think it was made by a parishioner and makes him look like a big pink eraser. He was planning to replace it so I’ll check it out this weekend.
Fr. Jay Finelli 9:25 pm on December 11, 2011 Permalink |
A big pink erasor. Now that is one I never heard! LOL
Patrick 10:37 am on December 10, 2011 Permalink |
Yes, twice a year, with sunday Gaudete and with sunday Laetare.
Adrianne 10:16 am on December 10, 2011 Permalink |
Yep! I love when my priest(s) wear that color because they always explain it : ) The 1st time I saw my priest in it he said, “This is not pink. It’s rose. There’s a different. We wear this on the 3rd Sunday of Advent.”

Many mistake is for a pink chasuble, but priest insist on naming it a ROSE-colored chasuble. Happy Gaudete Sunday to All in SQPN-land!
