Ordinary Time

Ordinary Time is a period in the Christian liturgical calendar dedicated to spiritual growth and reflecting on Jesus' teachings. It occurs twice a year: between the Christmas season and Lent, and after Pentecost until Advent. Despite its name, "Ordinary" refers to counted weeks rather than ordinariness. This time emphasizes living out faith in daily life, deepening one's understanding of Christ’s message, and nurturing ongoing spiritual development. It’s a time of steady prayer, learning, and practicing Christian virtues without the liturgical focus on specific themes like birth or salvation events.
