Calendar of Feastdays

Popular devotion has assigned to certain months a particular meaning or devotion. These months' dedications may not be universally accepted, and it is not compulsory to do anything special in honouring them, such as saying certain prayers or attending special Masses.

Details of each special day are included. If any item has the word "Details" in the right hand column, clicking on that will give you further detail. If the word "Moves" or the letter "M" appears after the date, this indicates that it is a movable Feast.
