Archbishop Calinic urges faithful to make liturgical calendar ‘the compass of your life’

Archbishop Calinic of Suceava and Rădăuți addressed the faithful at the start of the new Church Year, urging them to use the liturgical calendar as a guide for life. He highlighted prayer, mercy, Scripture, forgiveness, and staying close to the Church as key aspects of spiritual renewal.

“Begin with God, with a prayer offered in faith, with a candle lit in silence, with an act of mercy done from the heart,” Archbishop Calinic of Suceava and Rădăuți said in a message marking the beginning of the new Church Year.

His Eminence explained that liturgical time should not be regarded merely as a succession of feasts, but as a journey of encounter with God.

“Make the liturgical calendar the compass of your life, experience the rhythm of time as the breath of grace, and measure yourself not against the world, but against the Gospel.”

Archbishop Calinic also emphasised the need to anchor life in the perspective of eternity and in the awareness of God’s love:

“For the Church Year is a periodic return to the time of the Creator of all things, but also an opportunity to acknowledge that you were created, called and loved by Him.”

“Choose the path of forgiveness. Forgive those who have hurt you, ask forgiveness from those you have wronged, make peace with the past, and in this way you will once again walk in the work of grace,” the Archbishop added.
