For a while I was changing the image at the bottom of my blog screen according to the liturgical seasons, inspired by Emily at
Watkins Every Flavor Beans. This year I found it easier just to stick with one image of
a circular calendar by
My Faith My Life. So I appreciate that Browniesmoke (at
What Can We Leave Out) has linked to
the new coming year's calendar, now available at
My Faith My Life. (
Lo hay también en español.)
I echo Browniesmoke's advice that even if some in your family (such as children doing Godly Play or Catechesis of the Good Shepherd) already understand liturgical colors, this calendar can help others (such as grown-ups) grasp it. It's also interesting for older children in that it is more detailed than some GP classroom presentations will be, since it has a square for every day, not just
for every week.
Bear in mind if you're outside the United States that it's been created for the Episcopal Church so may not entirely match your own church's practices.
Thanks, Jenifer, for sharing this resource!

Thanks for conversing with me about Godly Play®! I do moderate some comments for the sake of the children I write about. Please be polite: to quote the Velveteen Rabbi, Whatever you're going to say in response to my posts, consider whether it's the sort of thing you would say to your host or their children if you'd been invited to someone's home for tea. If it isn't, then please don't say it here.
