Just in the same way there is a Gregorian/Yearly calendar, a school calendar, a financial calendar, even a footy calendar; there is a liturgical calendar. The liturgical calendar helps us to enter into the mystery of God's salvific plan of humankind. Throughout the year, we focus on Holy Scripture, the Tradition of the Church, the Life of Christ, and all the beauty of the liturgy that is designed to lift up our hearts and minds to heaven, and so be more mindful of the present realities today. Below is an overview of the Liturgical calendar, whereby we unite ourselves to Christians right around the world in worshiping God and caring for others.
