Sunday of the Word of God - January 20-21.
Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has instituted the Sunday of the Word of God, to be celebrated annually on the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time. For the Sunday Masses of January 20-21, we ask you to bring your personal or family Bible to Mass with you.
We hope that through this prayer, we will all recognize the importance of the Bible in Catholic life and encourage one another to read and study it as a regular part of our lives as disciples of Jesus. During the Mass, we will have a commitment and blessing prayer as you hold your Bibles.
