  • SESSION 19: SEASONS and SYMBOLS Goals
    SESSION 19: SEASONS AND SYMBOLS Goals: • To understand the various seasons that Christians celebrate throughout the year. • To explore the meaning of each season including common practices, colors and symbols. Lesson Structure: This is an interactive, creative and fun lesson! This lesson will be primarily spent working together as a color group. A brief overview of the liturgical calendar will be presented to the large group and then each color group will be assigned a specific season to explore together. Groups will be given a one-page resource with facts about their season and together they will create a visual representation of that season using provided supplies. Each group will have an opportunity to present their final display to the class. Church Seasons ADVENT The first season of the Christian year. It is a season of preparation for Christ’s promised coming. Advent begins on the fourth Sunday before Christmas. Purple or blue are the colors for this season. Purple is the color of royalty as we prepare for the coming of Jesus the King. Some churches use blue for Advent because purple is also the color of another liturgical season. Blue is the color of pre-dawn light. CHRISTMAS Christmas celebrates Jesus’ birth. This season lasts from Christmas Eve until January 5, the day before Epiphany. White or gold are the colors for this season. These colors together signify celebrations reserved for only the most important Christian holidays. SEASON AFTER EPIPHANY The Season After Epiphany marks the arrival of the three wise men and is typically celebrated on the first Sunday of January but technically it begins on January 6 and continues until the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday.

  • "Ordinary Time" May Be Misleading. in the Context of the Liturgical Year The
    The term "Ordinary Time" may be misleading. In the context of the liturgical year the term "ordinary" does not mean "usual or average." Ordinary here means "not seasonal." Ordinary Time is that part of the Liturgical Year that lies outside the seasons of Lent-Easter and Advent-Christmas. In Ordinary Time, the Church celebrates the mystery of Christ not in one specific aspect but in all its aspects. The readings during the liturgies of Ordinary Time help to instruct us on how to live out our Christian faith in our daily lives. For Ordinary Time, readings for the Liturgy of the Word have been chosen for thirty-four Sundays and the weeks following them. However, some years have only thirty-three weeks of Ordinary Time. Further, since the Christmas Season ends on a Sunday with the Baptism of the Lord, and the Easter Season ends with Pentecost Sunday, two weeks in Ordinary Time do not have a corresponding Sunday. In addition, some Sundays of Ordinary Time are superseded by a solemnity that coincides with a Sunday, e.g., The Most Holy Trinity or Christ the King, the last Sunday of the liturgical year. Ordinary Time in the Church's year occurs in two sections. The first part begins on the Monday following the Christmas season, which ends with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord on the Sunday following January 6. It lasts through the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the Lenten season. Ordinary Time resumes after the Easter Season, on the Monday after Pentecost, and continues until evening prayer on the Saturday before the First Sunday of Advent.

  • Ordinary Time, 12Th Sunday, Year B
    12th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME St. Mark 4:35-41 As the Church enters again into Ordinary Time after the weeks of Lent and Easter, we are reminded of the of time. Time is an important idea in our faith. Unlike many other religions which believe that time is an endless cycle Christianity believes that there is a beginning and end to time. There was a moment when God created the world and time began and there will be a moment when God will end the world and time itself will end. The Bible is itself a book of time; the beginning of time is found in Genesis, the first book of the Bible, and the end of time in the book of the Apocalypse, the last book of the Bible. The Church marks the passage of time through the seasons of the year. Not just the four seasons of the natural world—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—which the Church prays for with the Ember Days on the first Fridays of each of these seasons—but also the seasons of the life of Christ with the liturgical seasons of Advent, Christmastide, Lent, Eastertide, and Ordinary Time to the many solemnities, feasts, and memorials. But apart from this the year is also divided by months and days, each of which is dedicated to a particular aspect of our faith. January is the month of the Holy Name of Jesus, February is the month of the Holy Family, March is the month of St. Joseph, April is the month of the Blessed Sacrament, May is the month of the Blessed Virgin Mary, June is the month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, July is the month of the Precious Blood, August is the month of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, September is the month of the Seven Sorrows of Mary, October is the month of the Holy Rosary, November is the Month of the Holy Souls in Purgatory, and December is the month of the Immaculate Conception.

  • 2021 Liturgical Colors Calendar
    COLORS FOR THE AME CHRISTIAN YEAR In the Christian year of our church, we recognize two cycles: the Christmas Cycle (Advent-Christmas-Epiphany) and the Easter Cycle (Lent-Easter-Pentecost). Within each cycle are a preparatory season symbolized by the color purple and a festival season symbolized by the color white. Between each cycle follows an ordinary time of growth symbolized by the color green in the Seasons Aft er the Epiphany and Aft er Pentecost. Therefore, there is a sequence of seasons using purple, white, and green in that order twice each year. PURPLE is a color of both penitence and royalty used during the preparatory seasons of Advent and Lent. Alternative colors of royal blue or violet may also be used during Advent. WHITE and GOLD are joyous and festive colors used during the Christmas and Easter seasons (except on the Day of Pentecost) and in other seasons on festive days such as Baptism of the Lord, Transfi guration, Trinity, All Saints, and Christ the King. White may also be used at weddings. At services of Holy Communion white linens on top of the Lord’s Table are the tradition of the AME Church, and are used on the fi rst Sunday, regardless of the Holy Season that is celebrated. Therefore, even if the fi rst Sunday of the month is the fi rst Sunday of Advent, the color used in the pulpit remains white. GREEN is a color of growth used in the Seasons Aft er the Epiphany and Aft er Pentecost, except when special days call for white or red.

  • The Liturgical Year
    22 The Liturgical Year Holy Church celebrates the saving work of Christ on prescribed days in the course of the year with sacred remembrance. Each week, on the day called the Lord’s Day, she commemorates the Resurrection of the Lord, which she also celebrates once a year in the great Paschal Solemnity, together with his blessed Passion. In fact, throughout the course of the year the Church unfolds the entire mystery of Christ and observes the birthdays of the Saints. Universal Norms on the Liturgical Year and the General Roman Calendar [UNLYC], no. 1 LITURGICAL DAYS 1. Each day is made holy through the celebration of the Liturgy by the People of God. 2. This happens especially through the Eucharistic Sacrifice and the Divine Office. 3. The observance of Sunday and Solemnities begins with the evening of the preceding day. 4. All other liturgical days run from midnight to midnight. 5. Sunday is ranked the first holy day of all, the primordial feast day. 6. Solemnities are principal days in the calendar. Each begins with Evening Prayer I on the preceding day. Some have their own vigil Mass for use on the preceding evening: • The Nativity of the Lord (Christmas), 25 December; • The Epiphany of the Lord, Sunday between January 2 and 8 (USA); • The Ascension of the Lord, moved to Sunday in the Province of Chicago; • Nativity of St. John the Baptist, 24 June; • Sts. Peter and Paul, Apostles, 29 June; • Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, 15 August; • and Pentecost Sunday, Extended form and Simple form. • The Easter Vigil in the Holy Night follows its own rules.

  • All About the Atrium – Ordinary Time
    All About the Atrium CGSUSA Parent Newsletter Ordinary Time The liturgical year begins with the Season of Advent, a time for the faithful to prepare for the feast of Christmas. We are now moving from celebrating the birth of Jesus at Christmas to Ordinary Time. The Church’s calendar, the liturgical calendar, lifts up for us the life of the Church, as it commemorates the life of Jesus Christ. This month we focus on Ordinary Time which lasts about half of the liturgical year. We find this time on the liturgical calendar just after the new civil year begins in January. Ordinary Time follows the Christmas season through Ash Wednesday and begins again after the feast of Pentecost. This longer observance of Ordinary Time continues until the start of Advent, which marks the time we begin a new liturgical year at the end of November and the beginning of December. The color for Ordinary Time is green. We see green in the vestments worn by the priest and deacon at liturgy, we find it used in the liturgical environment that decorates our Church, and the child discovers the green cloth as it adorns the prayer table in the Atrium. Photo courtesy of Carolyn Kohlhaas Sofia Cavalletti writes on page 71 of The Religious Potential of the Child: Six to Twelve Years Old: “In modern life, the way we live time has been referred to as “mercantile time”—a way that is out of sync with nature’s rhythm. In the structuring of “mercantile time,” the occupations of homer faber prevail; humans organize their jobs and lives according to precise schedules.

  • The Liturgical Seasons of the Catholic Church
    Prayerful Perspectives in Planning the Church's Seasons Praying Together at School Facilitator: Fran Burke, Brisbane Catholic Education Resource Compiled: Mark Elliott, Erin Wedge, Margaret Connors and Fran Burke 1 | P a g e Background Information Reference: http://cyberfaith.com/liturgical_year.cfm Just as a typical calendar has four seasons, twelve months, fifty-two weeks, and 365 days that include holidays, solemn days, commemorative days, and days that are just "average," the Liturgical Year Calendar of the Church uses similar terms and measurements. The Liturgical Year is marked by special seasons: Advent, Christmas, Lent, The Paschal Triduum or Three Days, Easter, and Ordinary Time. The Liturgical Year begins on the first Sunday of Advent, which usually occurs around the beginning of December or the end of November, and ends on the feast of Christ the King. The purpose of the Liturgical Year Calendar is not to mark the passage of time, but to celebrate and understand more fully the entire mystery of Jesus Christ, from his incarnation and birth until his ascension, the day of Pentecost, and the expectation of his return in glory. During the course of a year, the Paschal Mystery: the passion, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus, is viewed from different angles, in different lights. The Liturgical Year Calendar communicates what readings the Church has designated to be used for each day. It articulates the special feasts and commemorations celebrated during each season. It communicates the colour of the vestments to be worn by the priest during each celebration of the liturgy. The colours for the seasons are: Advent ~ purple/dark blue, Christmas ~ white/gold, Lent ~ purple, Easter ~ white/gold and Ordinary times ~ green.
