The Seasons  of

Here in Cyber-Church, we try to declare church seasons that make sense in real life.  Our church seasons are:
-  Fiscal New Year (starts in September when typical churches in the Northern Hemisphere start up Sunday school) 
 
-  Christmastime (starts after the last Thursday in November, when the United States has other major holidays out of the way) 
 
-  Ordinary Time (starts sometime in January, but here in Cyber-Church we're kind of casual about observing it) 
 
-  Lent (starts on Ash Wednesday, just like everywhere else) 
 
-  Resurrection Time (starts on Easter, just like everywhere else) 
 
-  Summertime (starts in June when typical churches in the Northern Hemisphere stop Sunday school) 
 
 A lot of our church seasons follow what children do.  Well, that's just like real life, because that's what a lot of real-life churches do.  I doubt we'll ever change that, and I'm don't think we ever should, but at least we'll know  why  we do the rituals we do.
