Ordinary Time is the current Roman Catholic system of numbering days of the church year that fall outside of the Christmas and Easter cycles. It first went into effect in Advent of 1969.

Formerly Sundays following Epiphany formed their own season and numbering began anew for Sundays after Pentecost, a system still used by many Protestant churches as well as the Eastern Rite. Ordinary Time begins with Baptism, continues with OT 2 thru OT 33 (interrupted by the movable Easter cycle) and ends with Christ the King.

Ordinary Time was adopted at the same time as the three-year lectionary. While readings changed, the sung propers were adapted from the one-year cycle, in most cases with only slight adjustments (for OT 7 & 29-32 settings of the 1972 Ordo cantus missae texts from the 10c and before were revived). The Anglican church has adopted these, while naming the post-Pentecost Sundays Proper 7 (Sunday closest to June 22) etc... instead of OT 12.
