I admit, I am lost as to what you all are saying. I get the gist, but where are you finding these dates and what to celebrate when? Any recommendations on user-friendly sources for the traditional and correct dates of these liturgical celebrations or days would be most welcome, because I am perpetually in the dark on these! I note there is a contradiction right now on Epiphany, and I would prefer the traditional day be honored in our home, even though all we now have access to is NO. HOW to celebrate them at home would be nice, because that is all we have. <br />Please let me thank you in advance.

What REALLY irks me about the NO calendar is not only that they transfer Holy Days, but if a Holy Day of Obligation falls on a Saturday the Monday, then there's no obligation to attend Mass. (That's the practice for RCs in the US; I don't know what they do in Canada.)<br /><br />One of my major pet peeves is when they transfer the Feast of the Ascension from Thursday to Sunday. We have the Sunday of the Father's of the First Ecumenical Council of Nicea that day, so there's no way we in the UGCC could transfer it to Sunday. <br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981956.post-34593932408490267112017-01-06T14:17:54.926-05:002017-01-06T14:17:54.926-05:00Christ is Baptized!

Father also had the Great Blessing of Water and Myrovania (Anointing) after the Liturgy.<br /><br />We have just finished lunch. I thoroughly enjoyed my veal cutlet today. Have a glass of vino for me tonight.<br /><br />Wishing you and your family a Holy New Year and Holy Theophany.<br /><br />Yours in Christ the King,<br /><br />Margaret <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981956.post-10653599184667174382017-01-06T13:25:01.724-05:002017-01-06T13:25:01.724-05:00I'd rather not eat meat on any Friday during t...I'd rather not eat meat on any Friday during the year in reparation for my sins and the sins of the world, especially abortion!
