Who rejoices when a sinner is saved?
Oftentimes the friends, family, and loved ones of the sinner will rejoice as well as the rejoicing which takes place in Heaven. The shepherd found his lost sheep and called his friends to rejoice with him. Jesus said there is more joy in Heaven over the lost one that is found, than over ninety-nine just persons who were not lost. The one who has been found and has repented finds joy in his life. The prophet Isaiah wrote that "with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation" (Isaiah 12:3). There may be battles and hard places for one to go through after he has repented, but as he clings to the Lord he can find joy and strength for every need.

Luke 15: 19-20 I will arise and go to my father, and I will say unto him Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, And I am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose, and came to his father.

See Revelation 22:17. It was God's love for all of us that caused Him to send His Son to the cross. See John 3:16.
