Calendar of saints (Episcopal Church)
The veneration of saints in the Episcopal Church is a continuation of an ancient tradition from the early Church which honors important and influential people of the Christian faith. The usage of the term "saint" is similar to Roman Catholic and Orthodox traditions. Those in high church or Anglo-Catholic traditions may explicitly invoke saints as intercessors in prayer, though saints are mainly recognized in the Episcopal Church as merely examples in history of good Christian people.
The Episcopal Church publishes ''Lesser Feasts and Fasts'', which contains feast days for the various men and women the Church wishes to honor. This book is updated every three years, when notable people can be added to the liturgical calendar.
This is the calendar of saints found in the Book of Common Prayer and ''Lesser Feasts and Fasts''; the relevant official resources of the Episcopal Church. This list reflects changes made at the 2009 General Convention. It lists provisional changes made in the new official list of feasts, ''Holy Women, Holy Men''.〔(''Holy Women, Holy Men'' )〕
There is no single calendar for the various churches making up the Anglican Communion; each makes its own calendar suitable for its local situation. As a result, the calendar here contains a number of figures important in the history of the church in the United States. Calendars in different provinces will focus on figures more important to those different countries. Different provinces often borrow important figures from each others' calendars as the international importance of different figures become more prominent. In this way the calendar of the Episcopal Church has importance beyond just the immediate purpose of supporting the liturgy of the American church. It is one of the key sources of the calendar for the international daily office ''Oremus.''〔(Oremus calendar )〕
Because of its relation to the Episcopal Church of the United States of America, the Episcopal Church in the Philippines follows this calendar rather closely.
==Ranking of feasts==
The Episcopal Church's Book of Common Prayer identifies four categories of feasts: Principal Feasts, other Feasts of our Lord (including Sundays), other Major Feasts, and minor feasts. Two major fast days are also listed (Ash Wednesday and Good Friday). In addition to these categories, further distinctions are made between feasts, to determine the precedence of feasts used when more than one feast falls on the same day. In addition, ''Lesser Feasts and Fasts'' gives further rules for the relative ranking of feasts and fasts. These rules of precedence all establish a ranking, from most to least important, as follows:
* PRINCIPAL FEASTS
* The Feasts of the ''Holy Name'', the ''Presentation'', and ''Transfiguration''
* ''Sundays'' through the year
* Ash Wednesday and Good Friday
* ''Feasts of our Lord''
* Other Major Feasts
* Weekdays of Lent
* Minor Feasts
