LITURGICAL CHURCH Our Lutheran Church is a liturgical church. Hence, we use a Church Calendar for the seasons. The Church Year begins with Advent (always 4 Sundays before Christmas) and ends 52 weeks later with the Feast of Christ the King, the last Sunday after Pentecost. It is divided into festival and non-festival halves. The fist half tells about our Savior's life and ministry, while the second tells how we respond to God's love and we grow in grace.
