You must show gratitude when you receive a goodwill message from someone.
This line of response incorporates that but goes on to bless the week ahead for yourself and include the person who says “Happy Sunday” to you.

Keep Glowing With the Love of Christ
The essence of the gospel as preached by the Christian community is to spread love. The person who tells you “Happy Sunday” just adhered to that simple goal and you’ll be abiding by the same tenet if you reply to the person with this line of response.
