Mass Readings: November 21
Saint of the Day
Pope St. Gelasius I (5th century)
As pope, Gelasius fought several heresies of fifth century. He insisted on the primacy of the bishops of Rome, and ordered communion to be received under two forms, bread and wine, in order to separate the wine-refusing Manicheans from the Catholics. He organized and beautified the liturgy, and was a great writer of that period.
Reflections from the Saints
Our Lady's love is like a stream that has its source in the Eternal Fountains, quenches the thirst of all, can never be drained, and ever flows back to its Source.
– St. Marguerite Bourgeoys
