After Pentecost
This is the second period of Ordinary Time
A period of many weeks in which the church recalls its faith in the
Holy Trinity and seeks to relate its faith as a people of God to Christ’s
mission to the world. Trinity Sunday in the first in this period and concludes
with Christ the King (the Reign of Christ).

Reign of Christ), which are white. For days such as the UCA anniversary, church
anniversaries, Mission Sunday, Inductions, Ordinations and Commissionings, the
colour is red.
If the Sunday between May 24 and 28 inclusive follows Trinity
Sunday, the readings for Epiphany 8 is used.
