Catholic Jargon
Ordinary
Again, we have two meanings that have nothing in common. The first one you have probably heard and it refers to the liturgical year. Ordinary Time or, to use its reverse, that time of the Church year that is not Advent, the Christmas season, Lent, the Triduum, or the Easter season. Ordinary Time makes up the bulk of the Church calendar, lasting from the end of Pentecost to the beginning of Advent, and makes another brief appearance between the Christmas season and Lent. Its liturgical color is green.
​
The other use of the term “ordinary” is the bishop, known as “the local ordinary.” For example, the local ordinary of New York City is Cardinal Timothy Dolan. “Ordinary” here comes from the root term “ordination.”
