I guess Facebook is not just for arguing about politics and football anymore. We’ve moved on to liturgical colors! Why do some So what does the Prayer Book say about liturgical colors? Actually, nothing. If your church wants to use tie-dyed vestments every Sunday, nothing says you churches (including can’t (except the principles of good taste). There is no color scheme Jesus, or even the early church fathers, deemed best. In fact, patterns of liturgical colors All Saints) use don’t appear until the twelfth century in the western church and were tossed out by the English reformers. During the Catholic revival of the 18th century, the blue hangings colors returned. While purple is traditionally used during Advent in the Roman during Advent Catholic Church and in many Episcopal churches, blue is also now common among Episcopalians, Lutherans, and a few Methodists. Episcopalians trace the while others use use of blue to the Sarum Rite, the term for the pattern of liturgy used in England at Salisbury Cathedral in the late middle ages. purple? Blue helps distinguish Advent from the purple of Lent. It is meant to show that Advent is not a season of penitence, but a season of preparation. Blue sym- bolizes the hope of Advent. After all, that’s what Advent is all about. To argue over whose colors are right is to miss the deeper meaning of the season. Advent is a time to watch and wait and hope for the coming of Christ. It is a time to prepare a place for Christ in our cluttered lives by refocusing on the things that really matter. The Christian faith is not a seamless garment, but a patchwork of varied colors and shapes. Which traditions are right? None of them, and all of them. The tradition that is “right” is the one that points you to the presence of Christ. I hope that Christ will be present to you as we move through Advent toward the Feast of the Nativity.
