The themes and lessons for Sundays and other Feast /

Commemoration days are adopted from the Third cycle (Year

the "Worship and Mission Commission" of the Communion of
Churches in India (Joint Council of the CSI, CNI and the Mar
Thoma Church). The collects are prepared by the CSI Liturgy
Committee and follow the lectionary themes.
The readings for week-days follow the First Cycle (Year A) of
Daily Reading prepared by the CSI Synod Liturgy Committee
to cover the Old Testament once in three years and the New
Testament twice in three years. A table of Psalms for daily
reading is also provided.
Themes and prayers for the Prayer Octave for Christian Unity
2025 prepared by the World Council of Churches are also
provided to encourage the local congregations to join the
worldwide Church in praying, experiencing and anticipating
unity. The reflective meditations are published in book form
and the same will also be available on the CSI website,

 Liturgical Colours
2025

December 24 evening to January 6 White (Christmas Season)

January 7 to March 4 Green (Epiphany Season}
March 5 to April 19 Purple (Lenten Season}
April 20 to June 7 White (Easter Season)
June 6 Red (Pentecost Sunday)
June 9 to June14 Green (Pentecost Season}
June 15 White (Trinity Sunday}
June 16 to November 29 Green (Pentecost Season)
November 30 to December 24 Morning Purple (Advent Season}

Significance of the Liturgical colours:

Note:
This note is added to help those congregations who use Liturgical
colours.
White is the colour for the festal periods from Christmas Eve to the
festival of Epiphany, from Easter day to the eve of Pentecost, and
for Trinity Sunday. It is also used for marriages, thanksgiving
services, harvest festivals, the feast of dedication of a Church and
for feasts commemorating saints. White is suitable for baptism,
confirmation and ordination, though red may be preferred.
Green is the colour for ordinary Sundays. It is used between
Epiphany and Ash Wednesday, and between Trinity Sunday and
Advent Sunday.
Purple is the colour for Advent season and Lenten season and is
therefore used from the first Sunday in Advent to the fourth
Sunday in Advent; from Ash Wednesday until Holy Saturday.
However, white may be preferred at holy communion service on
Maundy Thursday. Purple is recommended for funerals and for
the commemoration of the faithful departed, although either black
or white may also be used. White is preferred at the funeral of a
child.
Red is used on the feast of Pentecost. and during the week
between Pentecost, and during the week between Pentecost and
Trinity Sunday. It is used on All Saints' day and for the feasts of
those saints venerated as martyrs. It is appropriate for any service
which focuses on the gift of the Holy Spirit, and is therefore
suitable for baptism, confirmation and ordination.

Orange I Saffron CSI Episcopacy has instituted Orange/Saffron
hand bands and stalls for its Bishops. Orange is colour of India & it
is on the top of the Indian Flag symbolizing Indian spirituality of
Prayer, Meditation, Sacrifice, Sernessness and Commitment. The
CSI Episcopal vestments do not change the colours throughout
the year, for Episcopacy stands for continuity of Pastoral
Leadership, Solemnity & Dignity of Liturgical continuance and
perpetual theological reflection and commitment to God and to His
Word and to His Church.
