Liturgical Year 2019-2020
Well, this was an interesting year.... So the original plan was to effectively do the same basic design for all seasons, just change up colors, plants, etc. It was basically long and short banner on either side of the cross, candles/candelabras in the back, flowers in clumps of threes. Other than some banners that would not hang straight regardless what I did, that theme was executed perfectly. Then we hit Lent, and COVID. Oh COVID... I don't think anyone actually saw Palm Sunday because public Mass was closed and the live stream wasn't set up yet. Holy Saturday was the only Holy Week Mass celebrated, so we were setting Easter up mid week, which I never thought I'd ever do. Easter held that basic theme, but the full flower order was canceled cause when it was do we had no clue what, if any Masses we'd be hosting. By Pentecost the theme was just tossed out the window. I do think I capped this year off with a strong design over the summer. Needless to say, I'll never forget what went down in 2020.
