The Church seasons
| Season | How it is determined |
|---|---|
| Advent | The beginning of the church year, four Sundays prior to Christmas Day |
| Christmas | December 25 through January 5 (twelve days) |
| Epiphany | January 6 through Shrove Tuesday (the day before Ash Wednesday) |
| Lent | The forty days (excluding Sundays) prior to Easter |
| (Holy Week) | The last seven days of Lent, from Palm Sunday to the Great Vigil on Saturday. | Easter | Easter Sunday (earliest is March 22; latest is April 25) and the 50 days thereafter |
| Pentecost (Trinity) | From the Day of Pentecost * (formerly called "Whitsunday") and for at least 22 but not more than 27 Sundays thereafter |
The Church calendar is based upon Easter Sunday, which is the first Sunday after the first full moon after the vernal (spring) equinox. The "movable feasts" are: Easter, Septuagesima Sunday, Ash Wednesday, Ascension Day, Pentecost, and Advent Sunday.
* For the Day of Pentecost itself, the ecclesiastical color is RED.
