Gaudete and Laetare in the liturgy

It is particularly recommended for the Third Sunday of Advent, Gaudete, and the Fourth Sunday of Lent, Laetare, when rose may be used in the liturgy. The PAX embroidery and wheat emphasize the joy that comes from Christ’s nearness and the Eucharistic dimension of the celebration.

As an elegant and distinctive element of liturgical décor, it emphasizes the solemn character of the celebration.

PAX, wheat, and rose on the church lectern cover

Rose, as a liturgical color, symbolizes joy and hope emerging amid a time of waiting and penance, which is why it is used at particular moments of Advent and Lent.

The principal decorative motif is PAX embroidery worked in gold thread. The word PAX means peace and, in Christian tradition, refers to the peace of Christ, peace of the heart, and reconciliation flowing from God’s presence. Positioned at the center of the cover, it gives the decoration a clear sacred message and emphasizes the spiritual dimension of the liturgy.

The composition is completed by wheat, a traditional symbol of the Eucharist. It refers to the bread that becomes the Body of Christ during Mass and recalls spiritual nourishment and the mystery of the Most Blessed Sacrament. Decorative gold lines running through the fabric give the piece an elegant, harmonious, and modern character.
