8th Day of Christmas!

On the 8th Day of Christmas - January 1


From the song: Maids A-Milking

Traditional / Catechetical Remembrance: 
The Eight Beatitudes


Solemnity of Mary - Mother of God

While in the modern calendar January 1 is recognized for the Blessed Virgin Mary, traditionally - and still recognized in the Extraordinary Rite (Traditional Latin Rite) - it has always been the Feast of the Circumcision of our Lord which took place on the 8th Day from His birth.

I was going through postings for the 12 Days of Christmas, and though I was pretty sure I posted a full set, I am not finding one on the Qui Locutus blog!  While many of the 12 Days are posted throughout the years, never a full set - and find that I am missing days 7, 9, and 10! So, for 2020-2021 - allow me to remedy this! Below is an index (and the 9th, 10th, and 11th are scheduled to post as those days come up, so check back if you're here before those dates!).

1) Please respond ON TOPIC to the article at hand.

3) The "Spam Filter" is on - and randomly messages get caught in that filter. I have no control over which messages get caught in the spam filter and those that do must wait for me to mark them as "not spam." A message caught by the spam filter may show up for a moment, making you think it posted, and then disappear. Do not assume I have deleted your comment, it's probably just the spam filter and it will show up.
