        I was just wondering....

                                                                                                                    What is the Ordinary Time?

     

    Ordinary Time is a season of the Christian liturgical year.  The English name is intended to translate the Latin term Tempus per annum (literally "time through the year").  Ordinary Time comprises the two periods - one following Epiphany, the other following Pentecost - which do not fall under the "strong seasons" of Advent,Christmas, Lent or Easter.

    The weeks in ordinary time are numbered, although several Sundays are named for the feast they commemorate, such as Trinity Sunday (the first Sunday after pentecost) and Christ the King Sunday (the last Sunday in Ordinary Time and the last Sunday before Advent.

    The liturgical color normally assigned to ordinary Time is green commemorating a time of spiritual growth.
