Liturgical use

The four candles of the Advent wreath are lit progressively on the four Sundays before Christmas: three are purple, a sign of the season of waiting and penitence, and one is pink for Gaudete Sunday, announcing the approaching joy. The wreath is present in parish churches, chapels, oratories and family homes as a devotional and catechetical means of living Advent consciously. The standard dimensions make these candles compatible with the majority of commercially available liturgical wreaths.
