Today is the memorial of Saint Elizabeth & Saint Zechariah† (1st century B.C.-1st century A.D.), the parents of Saint John the Baptist: Saint-link Echo & Wikipedia-link Echo, Saint-link Zulu & Wikipedia-link Zulu.
Commentary: As part of my ongoing discernment, this week I acquired parish bulletins from St. John Vianney & St. Matthew's, both in downtown Flint. Holy Redeemer's bulletin is silent about a saint of the day for today; the other two bulletins each commemorate a different saint. I've chosen Sts. Elizabeth & Zechariach from the list of those saints remembered today because this very week I've read Saint Luke's account of the Baptist's conception & birth (chapter one).
Scripture of the Day
The Gospel according to Luke, chapter four.
