The Long Green Season

This year
because of the very early date of Easter there are 28 Sundays after Pentecost.
This is more than half the year!
Because
the liturgical colour for this part of the year - sometimes called Ordinary
time - is green I'm calling it the “long green season.” I sincerely hope that
we will not have another year of drought and that green, the colour of nature
and of growth, will be evident during this time - not only in church but in
the world around us.
The Sundays
after Pentecost are those in which we live out the new life we have in our
Risen Saviour. We do this in the context of a natural order that reflects
in itself the renewal of life and reveals in all its many ways the glory of
God. During thislong season I have prepared some surprises to enliven our
worship and our parish life. These will include visiting preachers and celebrants,
visiting musicians and some liturgical variation. There will also be some
courses, during our Adult Christian Education time between the services, offered
by visiting teachers.
What follows
is information about some of our summer program – more information will come
in June. |
