Rejoice! Msgr. Charles Pope, Community in Mission Monday, December 14, 2020 A homily for Gaudete Sunday. “Gaudete: is Latin for rejoice, and in Greek it’s “chairete.” Note that the root word charis (within chariete) refers to grace. Hence chairete means to delight joyfully in and by God’s grace, to experience God’s favor. © 2024 The Catholic Thing. All rights reserved.
