Every year, on one of the Saturdays of Advent, Our Lady of Guadalupe celebrates the “Rorate Mass,” which is a candlelight Mass during Advent in honor of our Lady. The Mass starts early in the morning so that the only light during the beginning of Mass comes from the candlelight. As the Mass progresses, however, the light of dawn begins to appear in the windows so that the triple recitation of the Vespers Antiphon “Behold the Lord shall come…,” which the celebrant sings after the Last Gospel, is rendered all the more fitting.
The Rorate Mass has been a traditional part of Advent and a beautiful way to anticipate the coming of our Lord in preparation for Christmas.
