Liturgical Feasts
Liturgical feasts are special days in the Christian calendar that celebrate significant events in the life of Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary, and the saints. These feasts are observed through various rituals, prayers, and ceremonies within the context of the liturgy, which is the public worship of the Church. Each feast has its own meaning and traditions, often reflecting the themes of the season in which they occur.
The liturgical year is divided into different seasons, such as Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter, each featuring its own set of feasts. For example, the feast of Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus, while the feast of All Saints honors all saints and martyrs. These celebrations help the faithful remember and reflect on their faith throughout the year.
