Jun. 24 Solemnity of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist, Solemnity
The Universal Church celebrates the Solemnity of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist. This feast, a segment of Advent in the season of Ordinary Time, makes us aware of the wonderful inner relationship between the sacred mysteries; for we are still in the midst of one Church year and already a bridge is being erected to the coming year of grace.
