Memorial
St Leo the Great
(c. 400–461) Roman pope and Doctor of the Church. His Tome at the Council of Chalcedon (451) defined Christ as one person in two natures. Met Attila the Hun on the road and persuaded him to turn back.
Pope Saint Leo, who turned back Attila, give us calm authority in the face of fear.
A memorial is an obligatory commemoration of a saint.
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
Ps 136:1
