Revised Format of Sunday Gospel Reflections: Enkindle in Them the
Fire of Your Love
Enkindle in Them the Fire of Your Love gospel reflections page has
a revised format. The left column will have a quotation on the sacrament of
Eucharist, while the right column will list saints honored on the same
date as the Sunday Mass. The first list are saints from the Roman liturgical
calendar, while the second list is from the Byzantine calendar (roots of the
Christian faith in the Eastern tradition).
The liturgical calendar of the Western Church has reserved Sundays
primarily for the solemnities and feasts of the Lord. This will always
have precedence over other feasts, obligatory memorials, and optional
memorials - especially those prepared in honor of the saints. The list
of saints given on the right column are supplementary information on
saints honored in the Western and Eastern traditions. The feasts
of saints honored in Western tradition are observed only when their feast
day does not occur on a Sunday.
Below is a list of Sunday Gospel Reflections that now follow this
revised format:
