This week marks the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, which, for the American half of the POCSP, is our Nation’s Patronal Feast. In celebration, we’ve included Dr. Clinton Brand’s liturgical notes on the Feast, and its close ties to English ecclesiastical history. In addition, we’ve included notes on St. John the Baptist’s E-Day held last month, and more. Happy Sunday, and Happy Solemnity! Please note also that the OOLW’s Bulletin on Divine Worship’s second issue has been released. The Newsletter will, throughout the month of December, be shorter in length, due to the constraints of the editor. Nevertheless, it will still come out weekly. If you are interested in helping, please reach out! Would you consider writing a Parish Profile? Would your priest consider allowing us to transcribe a homily excerpt? Is there a ministry, good work, or event you’d like others to know about? Would you be interested in excerpting passages from English Protestant literature? Email [email protected] to tell us more. Thank you to all the contributors this week.
