What do I KNOW about the Liturgical YEAR? WHAT would I like to know about the Liturgical YEAR?

The Liturgical year The notion of time helps us celebrate life by marking and recalling the important dates and events in our lives. Ex: Birthdays, anniversaries , graduations, etc.

The Liturgical Year Time has an important place in our spiritual life: It helps us reconnect with God. There are two types of time: Chronos and Kairos

The Liturgical Year Chronos is the time we measure. Ex: hours, days, weeks, minutes Kairos is the Lord’s time. It is God’s special time. Kairos reveals his will for our lives.

The Liturgical year The Liturgical year or Church calendar helps us celebrate the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. This is called the paschal mystery.

The Liturgical Cycle The Paschal mystery is celebrated through specific seasons. There are five specific seasons in the Church’s calendar: Advent, Christmas, Ordinary Time, Lent and Easter.

The Liturgical Year The Liturgical year is a cycle of seasons repeating itself at the end of each cycle. The Church year or cycle begins with Advent and ends with ordinary time.

The Liturgical year The Church calendar or Church year begins with the Holy season of Advent. The Church year begins in late November or Early December. Four weeks prior to December 25.

The Liturgical Year The word liturgical comes from the Greek word liturgy. Liturgy meant “Public Works” In Church language liturgy is the public worship given to God. I.E. Mass and sacraments.

Liturgical Year Through the Liturgical Calendar Christians express their faith in Christ their saviour. Each season of the Liturgical year celebrates an important aspect of Christ’s life.

The Liturgical Year Each season in the Liturgical calendar has a particular theme. Each season has a particular liturgical color. Each season concentrates on different parts of the Bible. Each season has different religious practices, and symbols.
