Reminder – Seton Shrine celebrates JAN 3!

by | Jan 3, 2015 | Vincentian Family

Seton feast 2015When feasts conflict! – The Church remembers Mother Seton on Jan 4th every year, the anniversary of her death.  But in 2015 the Solemnity of Epiphany (which changes dates every year) falls on 1/4.  That means no Feast Day for Mother Seton.

BUT, the Seton Shrine requested permission from the Archdiocese of Baltimore to celebrate her feast to 1/3.  And it was granted.  (Thank you Archbishop Lori!) From the Seton Heritage website.

“And so,  the Shrine’s Year-Long celebration of the 40th Anniversary of Mother Seton’s canonization will kick off January 3rd with a special Feast Day Mass.”

Fr. John Kemper, the Director of Mother Seton House in Baltimore will preside and preach.  And you’ll have a chance to see the Vatican documents that officially made mother a Saint!”
