Feast of Saint John, Apostle and Evangelist 

  • Study the readings for today and reflect on how St. John's approach to the Gospel differs from the other evangelists. 
  • Watch a video excerpt from The Face: Jesus in Art that beatifully illustrates John 1:1-14, one of the most dramatic passages in the bible. 
  • In the Gospel of St. John, Jesus implores us to love each other.  Read the first encyclical of Pope Benedict VVI, Deus Caritas Estand reflect on the nature of Christian love and charity.
  • Share your love of God by performing an act of charity today. Return duplicate or unneeded Christmas gifts and donate your refund to your local Catholic Charities agency.
