Despite its name, Ordinary Time is far from ordinary. Lasting from now until Advent, it carries us through the rest of the summer, from swim season to the start of the new school year and apple-picking to pumpkin-carving. Join us as we share Sisters Ordinary Time practices and reflections.

Pray with Us
School Sisters of the Atlantic-Midwest Province live across North America and in England, forming small communities with one another where they live. The question of how these small communities practice communal prayer was posed by Sister Marlene Panko, SSND, Chicago, in the weekly newsletter....
Ordinary Time, with the capital letters, is so filled with extraordinary events and feasts, such as that of the Trinity, Corpus Christi, feasts of Mary, and so many who showed heroic virtue and move us to try to emulate their lives in our very own.
Liturgically speaking, Ordinary Time is a period or season during the church year that falls between the celebrations of major feasts. But what does it mean to me?
With hope and peace, we enter into the joy of the Lord!
