Commontide

For Daily Growth

Thanks be to thee, my Lord Jesus Christ, for all the pains and insults thou hast borne for me, and all the benefits thou hast given me. O most merciful Redeemer, Friend, and Brother: Grant that I may see thee more clearly, love thee more dearly, and follow thee more nearly, day by day. Amen.

The Feast of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary to Elizabeth & Zechariah

On this day the Church keeps Mary's journey into the hill country of Judah to the house of Zechariah, where Elizabeth greeted her as the mother of the Lord and Mary answered with the Magnificat. Luke alone records it, and gives it no date. The feast itself is late: instituted at Prague in 1386 and extended to the whole Latin Church in 1390, kept for centuries on 2 July, and moved to 31 May in 1969.
