  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

All of the Churches recall her memory under this title in their daily Eucharistic prayers, and especially in the annual celebration of Christmas. The Virgin Mary was already venerated as Mother of God when, in 431, the Council of Ephesus acclaimed her Theotokos (God-bearer). As the Mother of God, the Virgin Mary has a unique position among the saints, indeed, among all creatures. She is exalted, yet still one of us. Redeemed by reason of the merits of her Son and united to Him by a close and indissoluble tie, she is endowed with the high office and dignity of being the Mother of the Son of God, by which account she is also the beloved daughter of the Father and the temple of the Holy Spirit. Because of this gift of sublime grace she far surpasses all creatures, both in heaven and on earth. At the same time, however, because she belongs to the offspring of Adam she is one with all those who are to be saved.

  • St. Vincent of Saragossa Vincent the Martyr / Vincent the Deacon
    St. Vincent of Saragossa Vincent the Martyr / Vincent the Deacon Feast day: January 22 Died: 304 Patron : vinegar-makers; wine-makers; Valencia, Spain and Lisbon, Portugal St. Vincent was born near Saragossa, Spain in the late 3rd century. Vincent was educated and became a deacon of the Church of Saragossa under Bishop Valerius. Valerius was elderly and had a speech impediment so he commissioned Vincent to preach throughout the diocese in his stead. Spain, at this time, was under the Roman empire. Emperor Diocletian made it a crime to practice Christianity. Vincent and Valerius were apprehended and imprisoned in Valencia, Spain where they were tortured and starved. Brought before the governor Dacian, they were expected to reject Christianity. St. Vincent spoke on behalf of himself and his bishop, declaring that they were willing to suffer everything for their faith. Valerius was exiled. But the governor was so outraged at Vincent’s outspokenness that he had him tortured again. First, he was stretched on a rack. Then, his flesh was torn with iron hooks and his wounds rubbed with salt. Dacian had the torturers beaten because they failed to make Vincent renounce his faith. Next, Dacian tried to compromise with Vincent. He would free him if he would allow all of his sacred books to be burned. When St. Vincent refused, he was burned over a red-hot gridiron. When he still refused to denounce Christ, he was thrown into a prison covered with shards of broken pottery. He remained tranquil and at peace which inspired his jailor to convert. St.
