thinking ahead

Mariposa is asking about colours of our lives, so I thought I'd begin with colours associated with Sunday. Writing about Sunday colours...

Thinking of colours such as Green the colour used for vestments at Harvest time, or when other colours are not used.

Red Whitsuntide, Good Friday and Martyrs

Gold or White used for happy times Christmas and some Saints' days

Blue associated with Mary

Violet Advent and Lent

This colour scheme is used by Catholics, Church of England and Methodists.

A different 'take' on life's colours. Shows how churches derived from one another and their colours legacy.
