Conclusion of the Year of St. Joseph - December 5, 2021
This second week of Advent is a powerful one. In our Sunday Gospel, we meet St. John the Baptist and hear his preaching. On Monday, we celebrate St. Nicholas. On Tuesday, St. Ambrose. Then on Wednesday, Dec. 8th, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of Mary—a holy day of obligation. But also on December 8th, we conclude the Year of St. Joseph.
