Today is the (optional) memorial of Blessed Pope John Paul II. Even the most hardcore printed breviary fans will want to go online for the Office of Readings (second reading) and the concluding prayer. Find these at ibreviary.com (widget on right side of this page, or at the Vatican website.
What makes this second reading unique is that many who read today it actually witnessed it being delivered--either in person or via television. It is John Paul's inaugural homily. There were no EWTN live broadcasts back in 1978, but many of us caught a bit of it on the evening news.
Thank you, Daria! I hope this makes it into the revision of the LOTH.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it will.
DeleteI didn't get to your blog on Tuesday, Daria, and would like to read John Paul's inaugural homily. Can't seem to access it through today's iBreviary. What is the Vatican website?
