The CALENDAR of the CHURCH YEAR
according to the use of the
Society of St. John the Evangelist
The Church Year consists of two cycles of Solemnities and Feasts: one is dependent
upon the movable date of the Solemnity of the Sunday of the Resurrection: Easter
Day; the other, upon the fixed date of December 25, the Solemnity of the Nativity of
our Lord Jesus Christ: Christmas Day.
Easter Day is always the first Sunday after the full moon that falls on or after March
21. It cannot occur before March 22 or after April 25.
The sequence of all Sundays of the Church Year depends upon the date of Easter
Day. But the Sundays of Advent are always the four Sundays before Christmas Day,
whether it occurs on a Sunday or a weekday. The date of Easter also determines the
beginning of Lent on Ash Wednesday, and the Solemnity of Ascension Day on a
Thursday forty days after Easter Day.
1. SOLEMNITIES
However, Solemnities appointed on fixed days in the Calendar, when they occur on a
Sunday in Lent, on a Sunday of Easter Season or on Ascension Day, are transferred to
the first convenient open day within the week.
In addition, Solemnities appointed on fixed days in the Calendar, when they occur on
the days of Holy Week or of Easter Week, are transferred to the week following the
Second Sunday of Easter, in the order of their occurrence.
Solemnities are observed with a First Evensong which takes precedence over
Evensong of any other day except another Solemnity and the Sundays in Lent or of
Easter.
6
2. Feasts
All Sundays of the year (not already appointed as Solemnities of our Lord) are
Feasts of our Lord.
The other Feasts regularly observed throughout the year are the following:
Feasts appointed on fixed days in the Calendar, when they occur on a Sunday, are
transferred to the first convenient open day within the week.
Feasts appointed on fixed days in the Calendar do not take precedence of Ash
Wednesday.
Feasts appointed on fixed days in the Calendar, when they occur on the days of Holy
Week or of Easter Week, are transferred to the week following the Second Sunday of
Easter, in the order of their occurrence.
The Saturday Evensong preceding a Sunday/Feast of our Lord is regarded as the First
Evensong of that Sunday/Feast.
The other Feasts do not have a First Evensong. However, their Evensong takes
precedence over the First Evensong of a Sunday/Feast, except those of the Sundays of
Advent, in Lent and of Easter.
3. Lesser Feasts
Lesser Feasts are omitted when they occur on Solemnities and Feasts. However, on
Ordinary Sundays a simple observance of a Lesser Feast may be made at the
Eucharist (in the Prayers of the People and the Eucharistic Prayer) and at Evensong
(in the Suffrages).
Lesser Feasts which occur on Ash Wednesday, the days of Holy Week and of Easter
Week are omitted. Lesser Feasts, which fall on the weekdays of Advent and Lent, are
observed as Commemorations only.
7
Additionally, Saturdays during Ordinary Time (after the Epiphany and after the Day
of Pentecost), which are unencumbered by any of the above observances, may be kept
as Lesser Feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Godbearer.
(At Morning Prayer, the Invitatory Antiphon: Ordinary Time 2 and a Marian collect
from the appendix (of Morning Prayer or of the Ordo) are used. At the Eucharist,
Gloria in excelsis and Marian Collects of the Day and At the Prayers are used.
Lessons may be those of the feria, or from the Common of the Blessed Virgin Mary.)
4. (Commemorations)
The following days are observed by special acts of discipline and self-denial:
Ash Wednesday and the other weekdays of Lent and Holy Week, except the
Solemnity of the Annunciation.
Good Friday and all the other Fridays of the year, in commemoration of the Lord's
crucifixion, except for Fridays in the Christmas and Easter seasons, and any
Solemnities which occur on a Friday.
In addition, Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, and the four quarterly days of
intercession (see Ember Days below) are kept as days of fasting.
6. Other Observances
Subject to the rules of precedence governing Solemnities, Feasts and Lesser Feasts,
the following days and occasions are also observed:
The Ember Days, traditionally observed on the Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays
after the First Sunday in Lent, the Day of Pentecost, Holy Cross Day and December
13.
The Various Occasions (traditionally called Votives) provided by the Prayer Book for
special celebrations of the Eucharist. Votive Eucharists for the Departed (Requiems)
are celebrated for members of the Society who have died in the given month.
There shall be no celebration of the Eucharist for any of the Various Occasions on
Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday.

ABOUT the DAILY OFFICE PSALTER
The Tables on the following pages outline two schemes for recitation of
the Psalter as used in the Society’s praying of the Daily Office.
The second is a six-week format for Morning and Evening Prayer adapted
to the current Emery House liturgical schedule.
Both schemes use the Psalter text of the Book of Common Prayer 1979
and make provision for optional omissions of imprecatory verses from
various psalms. These omissions, widely used in other monastic houses of
hospitality, are adapted from “A Monastic Breviary” (Order of the Holy
Cross).
[Note: See the appendix for a psalm scheme in a four-week cycle arranged for four
offices on each of the seven days of the week.]

(Hannah Grier Coome, February 9) [FAS 83]
Eternal God, you clothed your servant Hannah with the habit of prayer and the
robe of wisdom to guide her sisters in the ways of holiness and the works of
mercy and love. Deliver us, we pray, from an inordinate love of this world,
that we may be freed for the worship of your Name and for deeds that reveal
your grace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and
the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
(William Augustus Muhlenberg and Anne Ayers, April 8) [LFF 177, adapted]
Open the eyes of your Church, O Lord, to the plight of the poor and neglected,
the homeless and destitute, the old and sick, the lonely and those who have
none to care for them. Give to us the vision and compassion with which you
so richly endowed your servants William Augustus Muhlenberg and Anne
Ayers, that we may labor tirelessly to heal those who are broken in body or
spirit, and to turn their sorrow into joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who
lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
251
(Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, April 10) [AGCW]
Eternal God, the whole cosmos sings of your glory, from the dividing of a
single cell to the vast expanse of interstellar space: We bless you for your
theologian and scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, who perceived the divine
in the evolving creation. Enable us to become faithful stewards of your
divine works and heirs of your eternal kingdom; through Jesus Christ, the
firstborn of all creation, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
252
(The Consecration of Charles Inglis, August 12) [FAS 241]
Eternal God, who laid your hand upon Charles Inglis and made him the first
bishop of your Anglican flock in Canada, grant to each and all of us the insight
of faith, the eagerness of hope, and the skill of love, that we may continue to
build upon the one foundation of life, which is Jesus Christ our Lord, who is
alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
253
(Edward the Confessor, October 13) [FAS 303]
O God, you called your servant Edward the Confessor to rule the English
people in justice and to endow your Church with works of beauty. Mercifully
grant that, following his example, we may provide for the needs of the poor
and give shelter to the homeless and orphan; through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary [BCP]
Father in heaven, by your grace the virgin mother of your incarnate Son was
blessed in bearing him, but still more blessed in keeping your word: Grant us
who honor the exaltation of her lowliness to follow the example of her
devotion to your will; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with
you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
O God, you have taken to yourself the blessed Virgin Mary, mother of your
incarnate Son: Grant that we, who have been redeemed by his blood, may
share with her the glory of your eternal kingdom; through Jesus Christ our
Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God,
now and for ever. Amen.
Almighty God, of your saving grace you called Mary of Nazareth to be the
mother of your only begotten Son: Inspire us by the same grace to follow her
example of bearing God to the world. We pray through Jesus Christ her son
our Savior, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for
ever and ever. Amen.
Holy God, we magnify your Name for calling the blessed Virgin Mary to bear
your Word of hope to the poor, the hungry, and those who have no voice: Give
us grace and strength to proclaim your Good News in every age, with every
tongue; through Jesus Christ our Savior, who lives and reigns with you and
the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Grant to us, Lord, we pray, the joy of continual health of mind and body; and,
at the intercession of the ever-blessed Virgin Mary, free us from all present
sadness and fill us with eternal joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives
and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
O God, through the Child born of the blessed Virgin Mary, you have bestowed
on us the gift of everlasting life: Grant, we pray, that we may know the help
of her intercession, through whom you have counted us worthy to receive the
Author of life, Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you and the
Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Appendix 5: SSJE Sabbath Prayers
O God, in the course of this busy life, you give us times of refreshment and
peace: Grant that we may use our sabbath to rebuild our bodies and renew our
minds, that our spirits may be opened to the goodness of your creation and our
lives refreshed by the bounty of your love; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
or the following
Gracious God, you have sanctified days of rest for all your people, and have
called us to bear witness before the world to the graciousness and wisdom of
the Sabbath: Be with us now as we lay aside our work; hallow our rest, our
recreation and our leisure, and bring us to the new week refreshed and restored
in body, mind and spirit. We ask this in the name of Jesus, in whom we find
our true rest and who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever. Amen.
God of all creation, we give you thanks for the gift of our sabbath rest: Keep
company with us as we take up our work again, and help us to know, that even
in the midst of busy lives, our hearts rest in you. We ask these things in the
name of Jesus, who is himself our True Sabbath, and who abides with you and
the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
