Study Notes
The liturgical year is a cycle of seasons and celebrations in the Christian faith, which is organized and published in a liturgical calendar. The liturgical year is made up of six seasons: Advent, Christmas, Ordinary Time, Lent, Sacred Paschal Triduum, and Easter and is divided into two main cycles: the Proper of Time and the Proper of Saints The Proper of Time includes the Christmas cycle of Advent and Christmas, the Easter cycle with Lent and Easter, and the 34 Sundays of Ordinary Time The Proper of Saints includes the days dedicated to the memory of the Saints The liturgical year represents a journey of salvation for every Christian, during which they are invited to make their own the earthly and spiritual experience of Jesus Christ
The liturgical year begins with Advent, a four-week period of preparation before the celebration of Jesus' birth and ends with the Solemnity of Christ the King The heart of the liturgical year is the Easter Triduum, which recalls the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus The liturgical calendar leads us through the mysteries of Christ's life, and during Ordinary Time, we journey with Christ during his earthly life
The liturgical year is also enriched by observances proper to local Churches, whether national, diocesan, parish-level, or religious community The liturgical calendar is best illustrated in cyclic form to convey the infinite celebration of God The liturgical year is a way for Christians to celebrate their unbounded love of God at all times in all places, and it is a way to make their own the earthly and spiritual experience of Jesus Christ[2
