There are two cycles in the Church’s Year: the Extraordinary Seasons and the Ordinary Time. The word ”ordinary” comes from Latin ordinarius meaning regular, or of usual order, and its root “ordinal” means counted. The days and weeks of the Liturgical calendar are counted and in order to reflect the Mystery of Faith Christians celebrate during the year. In the Liturgy, the Ordinary Time is marked by the green colour of vestments. During this Time, the Church proclaims the presence of the Kingdom of God on earth, and calls all Christians to build that Kingdom by works of Mercy, Love and Peace.
