A beautiful characteristic of our Church is its seasons. They are like the movements of a great symphony, gracefully flowing from one to the other, bringing the emotion and meaning of the music to the listener. For the Church, the flow of its seasons is similar. From the joy of the Lord’s Nativity at the Christmas season to the hope of eternal life at Easter time, the Church’s seasons help bring the presence of the Holy Trinity to life in ways that keep the flame of faith burning within our hearts.
