  • Ordinary Time
    Ordinary Time In the liturgy of the post-Vatican II Roman Rite, Ordinary Time is that part of the Christian liturgical year outside of Advent, Christmastide, Lent, the Easter Triduum, and Eastertide,[1] and is divided into two periods: that between Christmastide and Lent, and that between Eastertide and Advent. In this season the Church celebrates the public ministry of Jesus from his Baptism of Jesus to the time of his final suffering and death. The word "ordinary" as used here comes from the ordinal numerals by which the weeks are identified or counted, from the 1st week of Ordinary Time in January to the 34th week that begins toward the end of November; Ordinary Time is interrupted by Lent and Eastertide.[2] Contents Roman Rite Solemnities and feasts on Ordinary Time Sundays Revised Common Lectionary usage See also Notes Roman Rite The Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, which ordinarily occurs on the Sunday after the Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord (6 January),[3] is the First Sunday in Ordinary Time. It closes the Season of Christmas and opens the Season of Ordinary Time. The weekdays that follow the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord are reckoned as belonging to the first week of Ordinary Time and the following Sunday as the Second Sunday of Ordinary Time. Ordinary Time continues until the Tuesday (varying between the 4th and 9th week of Ordinary Time) that immediately precedes Ash Wednesday. The date of the latter, which is on the 40th day (excluding Sundays) before Easter Sunday falls between 4 February and 10 March (inclusive).

  • Solar and Sacred Seasons
    Solar and Sacred Seasons The weeks of the year unfold through the four seasons. While solar seasons are reversed in the northern and southern hemispheres, the origins of sacred seasons were set from Biblical times from the time of the Exodus. For example, the command to celebrate Passover in springtime assumes a northern hemisphere setting. In The Bible Through the Seasons the entire Bible flows through the seasons every three years with passages sensitive to the sacred seasons. References to the solar seasons are limited, so that the plan will be suitable for God’s people in the southern hemisphere. This approach incorporates the traditional sacred names for the seasons and the counting of Sundays, while suggesting some changes for ease in using the three-year cycle of daily readings. The widespread use of The Revised Common Lectionary for Sunday worship also urges a method of naming Sundays consistent with the structure of the Lectionary. Advent to Epiphany (Winter in the Northern Hemisphere) Each of the four seasons is a quarter of a year with a norm of thirteen weeks. The four Sundays of Advent begin on the Sunday nearest November 30, the traditional date for St. Andrew’s day. Next there is Christmas Week, occurring on or after Christmas Day. The first Sunday in January is celebrated as Epiphany Sunday, the traditional date being January 6. There are from ten to fifteen weeks in Advent to Epiphany, depending on the date of Easter. The week when Ash Wednesday occurs is the Last Week in Epiphany, beginning with Transfiguration Sunday.

  • Pfingsten I Pentecost
    HAVE GERMAN WILL TRAVEL Feie1iag PFINGSTEN I PENTECOST Pentecost is also the Greek name for Jewish Feast of Weeks (Shavuot), falling on the 50th day of Passover. It was during the Feast of Weeks that the first fruits of the grain harvest were presented (see Deuteronomy 16:9). New Testament references to Pentecost likely refer to the Jewish feast and not the Christian feast, which gradually developed during and after the Apostolic period. In the English speaking countries, Pentecost is also known as Whitsunday. The origin of this name is unclear, but may derive from the Old English word for "White Sunday," referring to the practice of baptizing converts clothed in white robes on the Sunday of Pentecost. In the English tradition, new converts were baptized on Easter, Pentecost, and All Saints Day, primarily for pragmatic purposes: people went to church these days. Alternatively, the name Whitsunday may have originally meant "Wisdom Sunday," since the Holy Spirit is traditionally viewed as the Wisdom of God, who bestows wisdom upon Christians at baptism. Pentecost (Ancient Greek: IlcvrrtKO<>Til [i\µtpa], Liturgical year Pentekoste [hemera}, "the fiftieth [day]") is the Greek Western name for the Feast of Weeks, a prominent feast in the calendar of ancient Israel celebrating the giving of the Law on Sinai. This feast is still celebrated in Judaism as • Advent Shavuot. Later, in the Christian liturgical year, it became • Christmastide a feast commemorating the descent of the Holy Spirit • Epiphanytide upon the Apostles and other followers of Jesus Christ • Ordinary Time (120 in all), as described in the Acts of the Apostles 2:1- • Septuagesima/Pre-Lent/Shrovetide 31.

On the morning of the Resurrection, sorrow turned to joy, and the first day of the week became special to the disciples and friends of Jesus. They continued to worship with their religious Hebrew community, but a new layer of meaning had been added. To remember that additional meaning to life, the early Christians came together on every first day. The event of the Resurrection so affected their lives that early Christians began to celebrate the day each year. The celebrations of the Christian year began with what we presently call Easter. And so the weekly celebration of Sundays and the annual celebration of Christ's resurrection became the foundation of our current Christian calendar.

MOREHEAD WON THE EL PASO MAYORAL RACE ON A PLATFORM THAT PROMISED AN ACCEPTABLE WATER SYSTEM FOR THE CITY. LATER THAT YEAR, THE INTERNATIONAL WATER COMPANY (IWC) BEGAN CONSTRUCTION OF A WATER WORKS ON THE MESA NORTH OF FORT BLISS TO TAP INTO THE HUECO BOLSON AQUIFER. AROUND 1904, IWC REPLACED THE COMPRESSOR WITH A NEW PUMP PLANT. THIS NEW MESA PUMP PLANT DREW WATER FROM THE MESA WELLS THAT WAS THEN STORED IN A ONE-MILLION- GALLON, IN-GROUND TANK. HOWEVER, IN ORDER TO MEET DEMAND, IWC PUMPED WATER AT A RATE THAT EXCEEDED REPLENISHMENT. THE CITY OF EL PASO PURCHASED THE IWC IN 1909 FOR $927,000, BUT EVEN UNDER MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP, THE PUMP PLANT COULD NOT MEET THE DEMAND FOR WATER. BY THE LATE 1930s, THE CITY HAD BOTH EXPANDED THE MUNICIPAL WATER SYSTEM AND REVAMPED EXISTING FACILITIES IN ORDER TO MEET CONSTANTLY INCREASING DEMAND. BY 1937, THE CITY HAD BOTH A LOW-SERVICE DISTRICT SYSTEM FOR ELEVATIONS BELOW 3,850 FEET AND A HIGH-SERVICE DISTRICT SYSTEM FOR ELEVATIONS ABOVE 3,850 FEET; THE MESA PUMP PLANT WAS INCLUDED IN THE HIGH-SERVICE SYSTEM. THE CITY OF EL PASO DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND SEWAGE BUILT THE MESA WATER BOOSTING STATION IN 1938 TO REPLACE THE AGING MESA PUMP PLANT.

  • Lapson – Direct Page 9 of 26
    Page 8 of 26 1 included with the Proposed Transaction, although it is quite possible that EPE will 2 experience a one-notch downgrade of its Moody’s rating due to weaker cash flow, 3 regardless of whether the Proposed Transaction is consummated. As is discussed below, 4 Moody’s placed EPE on negative credit outlook more than a year before the 5 announcement of the Proposed Transaction, therefore any future downgrade by Moody’s 6 would likely be the result of factors unrelated to the Proposed Transaction. While both 7 Moody’s and S&P took ratings action following the announcement of the merger 8 agreement, when the Proposed Transaction closes the protection of the credit ratings of 9 EPE will be aided by the full and complete set of ring-fencing commitments proposed by 10 the Joint Applicants. 11 In preparing my Direct Testimony, I compared the ring-fencing provisions 12 proposed by the Joint Applicants against a systematic and comprehensive list of standards 13 that reflects my prior experience regarding credit defaults and bankruptcies particularly in 14 the utility and energy sector. This master list of standards incorporates the guidelines 15 applied by the three major credit rating agencies. The Joint Applicants’ proposed ring- 16 fencing provisions satisfy every aspect of these standards. Taken together, these 17 protective provisions will provide strong separation for EPE and EPE’s customers and 18 communities from risk of involuntary consolidation in bankruptcy with Sun Jupiter, IIF 19 US 2, or any IIF US 2 affiliate. Equally important, the proposed ring-fencing provisions 20 will enable EPE to retain access to all of its own financial and physical assets and cash 21 flow so that EPE can properly conduct its business and remain viable, even in the case of 22 financial distress of Sun Jupiter, IIF US 2, or any IIF US 2 affiliate.
