After Pentecost, we enter into the part of the church year called Ordinary Time, but do not let the name mislead you, for there is nothing ordinary about it. Ordinary Time is called “ordinary” because the weeks are numbered or ordered. Ordinary comes from the Latin word ordinalis, which refers to numbers in a series, and stems from the Latin word ordo from which we get the English word order. Thus, Ordinary Time is, in fact, the ordered life of the Church – the period in which we live our lives neither in feasting (as in the Christmas and Easter seasons) nor in fasting (as in Advent and Lent). Rather, we live in watchfulness and expectation of the Second Coming of Christ. During this time we consider the awe and wonder of God reflected in the world, and we hear scriptur e that tells us about Jesus’ earthly ministry. This is a time for us to consider and attempt to answer Jesus’ question to each of us “But who do you say that I am?” Answering this question will lead us into a deeper relationship with Christ and give us guidance on how we should live in the world. The color for this season is green, the color of life and growth. Thus, this is also a time for us to concentrate on our efforts to build up the kingdom and commit ourselves to doing ministry and evangelism. NOTICE – We want to include EVERYONE’S birthday and Anniversary(s) in our weekly and/or monthly publications, so if you are new to All Saints and have not filled out a card with this information or notice that your information is missing or are incorrect, please let Sue Erickson (Newsletter) and Kathy Hand (Bulletin) know so we can include you.
