We don't have rose-colored vestments...

We do, thanks to Memorial gifts received for an elderly couple who entered into Life within 48 hours of each other at Gaudete. When parishioners tease me that I "look good in pink" I always reply..."Rose..it is Rose!"

LOL. You'll no doubt enjoy this posting by a brand-new Anglican the first time he encountered Gaudete Sunday.

Our Parochial Vicar is a young African American who looks as though he ought to be playing defensive line for somebody . . .

He was so funny last year on Laetare Sunday . . . he climbed into the pulpit and said, "I cannot speak for Monsignor, or for Deacon Tom. But THIS brother does NOT look good in PINK!"

. . . it is kinda funny to see a man of his height and girth attired in "Rose."
