The countdown that represents Advent is reflected in the Advent wreath with the four candles, one for each Sunday. There are different versions of Advent wreaths, but one of the most popular is the one with four purple candles and one pink candle. The pink candle is lit on the third Sunday of Advent. It is a date of major between the solemnity and Reflection of the other days of Advent.

Resurrection Sunday is approaching, the Passion of Our Savior is near. Christ is going to sacrifice himself for the forgiveness of the sins of all men and women. The end of darkness is approaching, the light of the Paschal Candle will once again illuminate the temples to announce the good news.
