church calendar
Religious year planner
A church calendar is the annual cycle of liturgical seasons, feasts, and holy days observed by a Christian denomination.
It structures worship around events like Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and Pentecost, along with saints' days and other commemorations.
Different traditions—Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant—follow somewhat different calendars, though the major Christian holidays align.
