Laetare Sunday
is a name formerly often used, and less commonly used today, to denote the fourth
Sunday
of the season of
Lent
in the
Christian
liturgical calendar
. It is used predominantly, though not exclusively, by
Roman Catholics
.
Laetare
is a
Latin
verb meaning "to be joyful." This same Sunday is also known as
Mid-Lent Sunday
, or
Mi-Careme
in
French
. In the
Roman Catholic Church
, priests are given the option to wear rose-colored
vestments
to
Masses
held on this day, in place of the purple vestments normally worn during Lent. The
Gospel
reading for this Sunday recounts the miracle of the loaves and fishes. This date can fall anywhere between
March 1
and
April 4
