Liturgical Year Activities
The Christian year has two cycles: the Christmas Cycle (Advent-Christmas-Epiphany) and the Easter Cycle (Lent-Easter-Pentecost). Within each cycle are a preparatory season symbolised by the colour purple and a festival season symbolised by the colour white. After each cycle there is an ordinary time of growth symbolised the colour green. Therefore there is a sequence of seasons using purple, white, and green in that order twice each year.
We are currently in the season of 'Eastertide'.
Eastertide (also known as Eastertime or the Easter season) or Paschaltide (also known as Paschaltime or the Paschal season) is a festal season in the liturgical year of Christianity that focuses on celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
