Ordinary Time

The Chapel is now in Ordinary time or the time between Christmastide and Easter. Each year we read through one of the Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. God’s divine plan for mankind is revealed in the two Testaments and that is why we read and relive the events of salvation history contained in the Old and New Testaments in the Church’s Liturgy.

“It is on this harmony of the two Testaments that the Gospel teaching of the Lord is built, and then, that of the Apostles and the Fathers of the Church …” (CCC 1094). The Church in her wisdom teaches that the Liturgy reveals the unfolding mystery of God’s plan as we read the Old Testament in light of the New and the New Testament in light of the Old.”

For this reason alone, His Salvation Message, Jesus came back to Nazareth, read from the Prophet Isaiah, and then proclaimed His fulfillment of the Scripture.
