Red is very often used in our Church for various Celebrations.
Red is the color of fire and so symbolizes the presence of God. It is the liturgical color for Pentecost. It is considered the color of the Church, since red can also symbolize the blood of martyrs. It is sometimes used for Maundy Thursday and during Eastertide. In Roman Catholic tradition it is used for Palm Sunday in anticipation of the death of Jesus. In some traditions it is used to commemorate special days for martyrs or saints, or for the ordination of priests/ministers.
