Today marks the first official day of summer. That means that we are almost half way through 2007. We still have some of our beautiful St. James Calendar of the Christian Year 2007 available. Since only half of the year is left, we are selling them for half of the full price.
The Calendar has all of the major feasts and fasts of the Orthodox, Catholic, Anglican, and Lutheran liturgical traditions as well as some of the biblical Jewish holidays. There is a special emphasis on recognizing saints from the undivided Church of the first millenium. Tomorrow marks the feast of St. Alban, the first Christian martyr of Britain, who died in 304 AD.
Each page in the calendar has a handsome image based on a passage of holy scripture by such artists as Dore´, von Carolsfeld, and Rembrandt.
Grounded in the concept of the sanctification of time and the experience of the early Church, the Christian calendar, through its liturgical seasons of preaching, teaching, and celebration, unfolds a full and balanced gospel of Jesus Christ. When properly understood, it can serve as an aid to the faithful in their worshipful participation in the drama of salvation.
