The Calendar of the Church Year is the liturgical calendar found in the 1979 Book of Common Prayer[1] and in Lesser Feasts and Fasts,[2] with additions made at recent General Conventions.
The veneration of saints in the Episcopal Church (United States) is a continuation of an ancient tradition from the early Church which honors important and influential people of the Christian faith. The usage of the term saint is similar to Roman Catholic and Orthodox traditions. Episcopalians believe in the communion of saints in prayer[3][4][5] and as such the Episcopal liturgical calendar accommodates feasts for saints.[6]
