Christian liturgical calendar
The Christian liturgical calendar is a yearly progression of seasons and events, marking significant moments in the life of Jesus Christ and the Christian faith. It begins with Advent (preparing for Christmas), followed by Christmas, Epiphany, Lent (a period of reflection and penance), Holy Week (including Easter), and Pentecost. Each season has distinct themes and practices, guiding worship and devotion. This calendar helps Christians commemorate key events and enhance their spiritual life throughout the year, fostering a rhythm of celebration, introspection, and renewal in their faith.
