Ordinary Time, the season between the major liturgical events of the church calendar, provides a unique opportunity for creativity and reflection in worship. Unlike the more celebrated seasons of Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter, Ordinary Time is a period that encourages the exploration of diverse themes and symbols. Making visual connections in worship during this season can enhance the spiritual experience and keep the congregation engaged. In this blog post, we’ll explore a few creative ways to incorporate visual elements into worship during Ordinary Time.

As we look toward Ordinary Time in the liturgical calendar, we embark on a season of profound spiritual depth and exploration. Contrary to its name, Ordinary Time is anything but mundane; it is a period of growth, reflection, and the celebration of the Christian journey. In this blog post, we delve into the significance of Ordinary Time and how it provides a fertile ground for a diverse array of themes and symbols to adorn clergy stoles, enriching the worship experience and deepening our connection with the sacred.

At Carrot Top Studio, we believe in empowering pastors and ministers to express their unique calling and ministry through meaningful clergy stoles. Our Clergy Stole Fund offers a special opportunity for individuals and communities to support their pastor in acquiring stoles that resonate with their ministry and personal style. This blog post decribes the process.

In the world of liturgical artistry, every project is a unique journey, a canvas waiting to be painted with the stories, symbols, and spirituality of those who wear it. Carrot Top Studio recently had the privilege of embarking on such a journey, working on a commissioned stole project that paid tribute to the legacy of John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist Movement. Learn more about the project and see the finished stole in this blog post by Jenny Gallo.
