July 25, 2018, marks the 50th anniversary of Pope Paul VI's encyclical Humanae Vitae. Promoted widely in 1968 amid confusion over the sexual revolution, this encyclical became the guide for true Church teaching on God's plan for married love, human life, and human sexuality. In Humanae Vitae, Pope Paul VI reflects on how God designed the nature of married love. This he draws from Sacred Scripture and the Catholic Tradition. He writes that married love is fully human, involving the body and soul. Married love is total, faithful, and fruitful. [See HV, no. 9] Fifty years later, the issues addressed by Pope Paul VI are more relevant than ever, and its guidance remains a gift to the Church.

The symbol for Ordinary Time is Chi-Rho which is made from the first two letters of the Greek word for Messiah (Christos). The letter Chi (pronounced "kī") looks like an X, and the letter Rho (pronounced "rō") looks like a P. Chi-Rho became a symbol representing Jesus Christ.
"Ordinary" Time does not mean average. Ordinary here means "Not Seasonal," the part of the Liturgical Year outside the seasons of Lent-Easter and Advent-Christmas. It is a time for the Church to celebrate the wonder of God in all things, a time to celebrate the Paschal Mystery.
The readings during Ordinary Time help to instruct us on how to live our Christian faith in our daily lives. The last Sunday of Ordinary Time, the Feast of Christ the King, marks the end of the Liturgical Year.
