Ordinary Time

Ordinary Time

“Ordinary time, that part of the liturgical year between the Feast of the Baptism of Our Lord and Lent, and from Pentecost Sunday until the beginning of the Advent season. If the first two liturgical cycles of the year are that of Christmas and Easter, the Ordinary time is by far the longest, and is centered on Sunday celebration. These are called the 'green Sundays' on account of the color of the liturgical vestments worn by the priest (signifying hope and life)... Ordinary time is, as it were, the thread of the liturgical year.” —Br. Yves-Marie Lièvre
