Ordinary Time is a season of the Christian liturgical calendar. The name corresponds to the Latin term Tempus per annum (literally "time through the year").The term Ordinary does not mean common or plain, but is derived from the term ordinal or "numbered."

The term "Ordinary Time" may be misleading. In the context of the liturgical year the term "ordinary" does not mean "usual or average." Ordinary here means "not seasonal." Ordinary Time is that part of the Liturgical Year that lies outside the seasons of Lent-Easter and Advent-Christmas. In Ordinary Time, the Church celebrates the mystery of Christ not in one specific aspect but in all its aspects. The readings during the liturgies of Ordinary Time help to instruct us on how to live out our Christian faith in our daily lives.
