I was baptized, took first communion and was confirmed at this past Easter Vigil (along with my husband and our 3 children). St Martha is my confirmation saint, and somehow I missed her feast day. Our parish is wonderful- TLM is offered, but the NO is so reverent we’ve been happy save the pew space for others (PoP in Upstate SC is pretty packed 😂). Now I’m wishing I had known to attend TLM yesterday. Shame on me for not paying better attention to my Saints calendar. Great post! 🥰
I read Dr K's commentary too - very well put. The Novus Ordo has really butchered a lot of our patrimony!
Thank you Leila! Perfect timing. I’ll be reading this more than twice, I’m sure.

Today is her feast! Yesterday (Sunday) was the Gospel of the Pharisee and the Publican. So happy feast day!
I wasn’t going to have ice cream, but now there is a special occasion to celebrate! Thank you for clarifying! 🥰
Just what I was going to suggest — ice cream! ❤️❤️
