Saint of the day

Solemnity

All Saints

A feast of all the blessed in heaven — known and unknown, canonized and uncanonized. The crowd no one can number from every nation, tribe, people, and tongue (Rev 7).

Holy women and men, all the saints of God, pray for us — every one of us still on the way.

A solemnity is the highest rank of celebration in the calendar.

About Ordinary Time

Ordinary Time is the Church's ordered counting of weeks — 'ordinal', not 'ordinary' in the sense of plain. It falls in two stretches, after the Christmas season and after Pentecost, and it is where most of the Gospel is read straight through, Sunday by Sunday.

Why white?

White is worn at Christmas and Easter, and on feasts of the Lord, Mary, and saints who were not martyred. It is the color of joy and of light.

Verse of the day

Matt 5:8
