Worship- THE CHRISTIAN CALENDAR (THE CHURCH YEAR)
The Christian Calendar
The Time of Christmas
Advent – We remember how the Messiah came to Israel, rejoice in Christ coming to us today in his means of grace, and anticipate his return to glory on the day of judgment. Christmas – We observe the Feast of the Nativity – God’s Word made Flesh – followed by 12 days of celebration. Epiphany – Through signs and wonders, God reveals his Son to be the Light of the nations and the glory of his chosen people Israel.
The Time of Easter
Lent – We recall especially the trials and conflicts in the life of Christ by which he was prepared to enter his sufferings, and we larn from him to endure. Holy Week – We enter the mystery of God’s own atonement for the sins of the world, in order to give life to the world. Easter – God’s hidden plan of the ages is revealed to us in his raising Jesus from the tomb, and raising his disciples from despair to faith
Octave of Pentecost
In the outpouring of the Spirit, God reveals himself as a holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Spirit.
The Time of the Church
Sundays after Pentecost – This long period through summer and autumn represents the life of Christ in his church, as she lives by faith and in service to him between his Ascension into heaven and his final coming in glory.
