List of Anglican Church calendars

TheChurch of Englanduses a liturgical year that is in most respects identical to that of theCatholic Church.While this is less true of the calendars contained within theBook of Common Prayerand theAlternative Service Book(1980), it is particularly true since the Anglican Church adopted its new pattern of services and liturgies contained withinCommon Worship,in 2000. Certainly, the broad division of the year into the Christmas and Easter seasons, interspersed with periods of Ordinary Time, is identical, and most Festivals and Commemorations are also celebrated, with some exceptions.

In some Anglican traditions (including the Church of England), the Christmas season is followed by an Epiphany season, which begins on the Eve of the Epiphany (on 6 January or the nearest Sunday) and ends on theFeast of the Presentation(on 2 February or the nearest Sunday). Ordinary Time then begins after this period.

TheBook of Common Prayercontains within it the traditional Western Eucharistic lectionary which traces its roots to the Comes ofSt Jeromein the 5th century. Its similarity to the ancient lectionary is particularly obvious during Trinity season (Sundays after the Sunday after Pentecost), reflecting that understanding of sanctification.^[1]
