This vibrantly illustrated circle-of-the-year Catholic liturgical calendar depicts in its corners the prophetic vision of the kingdom of God and in the center, the restoration of the kingdom promised us by Christ. The calendar begins the First Sunday of Advent and presents all the Sundays and weekdays of the liturgical year for 2009. The Sundays of the year form the outer circle, and each spoke of the wheel represents a week. The seasons are defined by colors and weekdays are marked with seasons, solemnities, feasts, fast days, and memorials of the saints.
