The third candle is Pink, it represents joy at the happy occasion of Christ's birth. It is also known as The Shepherds Candle. In the Bible the Shepherd who visited Jesus first encountered angels. Those angels said to the shepherds "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people." It is this Joy that Christians remember on the third Sunday.
