Saint Bede the Venerable translating the Gospel of John


Today in the calendar of the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite and on the Benedictine Calendar is the feast of this blog’s patron, Saint Bede the Venerable. For no reason that I understand, in 1970 his feast was moved to the day before yesterday.

This sort of silly confusion should really be cleared up. One calendar for the Roman Rite!

Don’t even get me started about Corpus Christi, which was yesterday and the day after tomorrow.
