It's called Laetare Sunday (or sometimes Rose Sunday or Refreshment Sunday). "Laetare" means rejoice in Latin. It's the idea that we're half-way through Lent and so we can rejoice a bit that there's alight at the end of the tunnel. "The passage from Isaiah continues, "rejoice with joy, you that have been in sorrow," and on Laetare Sunday, the purple vestments and altar cloths of Lent are set aside, and rose ones are used instead. Flowers, which are normally forbidden during Lent, may be placed on the altar. Traditionally, the organ was never played during Lent, except on Laetare Sunday." from (link below)
