No, GREEN is the color in Ordinary Time and Violet in Advent. White is for Christmas and Easter, and feasts of Our Lord, the Blessed Virgin, and other saints who are not martyrs.
I am answering this question during the Christmas season, so the vestments are white. Here is the entire year: Advent - violet Christmas - white Ordinary Time - green Lent - violet Easter - white Ordinary Time - green If it is a feast day, then the vestments change depending on the feast day. For martyrs, the Holy Spirit, and the passion of Our Lord, the color is red. For saints who are not martyrs, the color is white. For a funeral the priest may use black, white, or violet. Gold may be substituted for any color.
The Season after Advent (liturgical color - Purple) is Christmas (liturgical color - gold/white) then follows Epiphany, [in some calendars the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord precedes (red) is the Last Sunday before the beginning of "Ordinary Time") Sundays After Epiphany also known as "Ordinary Time" (liturgical color - green) to Lent (liturgical color - purple) then to Easter and the Sundays after Easter (liturgical color gold/white) , on to Pentecost, (the liturgical color for Pentecost is red) followed by Sundays after Pentecost again, "Ordinary Time" (the liturgical color for Sundays after Pentecost and "Ordinary Time is green) [in some calendars the last Sunday in Ordinary Time is the "Feast of Christ the King) and then Advent starts all over again.
