ORDINARY TIME

Sundays after Trinity are referred to as ‘Ordinary Time'. Other seasons are preparing for or responding to Christmas and Easter; this is just a season of steady growth, which is why the church hangings and vestments are green, the colour of growing things. Under the Anglican lectionary, the Collect and Post-communion Prayer depend on the number of Sundays since Trinity Sunday, but the readings depend on the calendar date (e.g. ‘Proper 5' means the readings ‘proper', or ‘appropriate', for ‘the Sunday between 5 and II June inclusive (if after Trinity Sunday)'). At the Principal Service, there are two alternative series of Old Testament readings and psalms, which the minister may choose between. The ‘Continuous' series follow the chapters of an Old Testament book in sequence Sunday after Sunday. The ‘Related' series are chosen to illuminate the set New Testament reading and Gospel. If a Saint's Day falls on the Sunday, the minister may choose to use the readings for the saint instead of those for the Sunday. In these cases, this book provides a sermon on the Saint's Day readings in place of the Second Service.
