π The Season after Pentecost
Pentecost is the final day of Easter, commemorating the gift of the Holy Spirit at Jerusalem, according to Acts 2. The season that follows (also known as Ordinary Time) covers the remainder of the Church Year, ending the day before the First Sunday of Advent. In all, the Season after Pentecost lasts 23β28 weeks (no earlier than May 9, no later than December 2).
The first Sunday after Pentecost celebrates the Trinity, and the last Sunday after Pentecost celebrates the Reign of Christ.
The season also includes the Transfiguration (August 6), Holy Cross Day (September 14), and All Saintsβ Day (November 1), among other major feasts.
The following table lists each dayβs morning and evening psalms as well as the first, second, and gospel readings.
In Year One, the second reading is traditionally meant for the morning and the gospel for evening. In Year Two, the gospel is for the morning and the second reading for evening.
When there is more than one first, second, or gospel reading, then those specified for morning or evening are marked by the π and π emoji, respectively. Alternative readings are marked by the π emoji.
On smaller screens, you can scroll both horizontally and vertically to read across rows and columns.
