The church year starts on the First Sunday in Advent. The date can be calculated each year by counting four Sundays back from Christmas, so if Christmas is on a Monday the liturgical year started on December 3 and if Christmas is on a Sunday the liturgical year started on November 27.
The first day of the Catholic liturgical year is the first Sunday of Advent, which is the fourth Sunday before Christmas. Because Christmas is 25 December, the first Sunday of Advent is the Sunday after the last Thursday of November, so it can be as early as 27 November to as late as 3 December.
The first Sunday of Advent is the beginning of a new liturgical year, which occurs late November or early December, four Sundays before Christmas.
