neat-o. that worked quite nicely.
but what are the days in the little bitty sliver between Easter and Common? Pentecost? Roll Tide?
Pentecost. :p
What does this mean, I’ve never seen one before?
it was an update i did for a co-worker of the Methodist liturgical calendar. the colors represented on the chart indicate what color the stoles and other accoutrements in the church are supposed to be.for example, during the biggest chunk of time, Common Time (which falls between Pentecost & the start of the Advent season), our church leaders wear green stoles with their robes.
Do your church leaders always wear robes, etc?
btw, have you seen this discussion – http://mjhunter.posterous.com/believable-love-it – and if so do you have anything you can add to it?
yes, every Sunday, but, we’re a very traditional church. its sort of de rigeur. to that end, there are many, many churches within the Methodist denomination where leaders take a much more laid-back approach to this sort of ritual regarding the liturgical calendar.
Easter is a 50-day season. It does not end on Ascension Day (always a Thursday, 40 days after Easter), but on Pentecost (two Sundays later: the 50th day, inclusive, after Easter). The red sliver of Pentecost is just one day, not ten.
