Six Holy Days and Moveable Feast Days
Holy Days (Days of Obligation) often are referred with the words "Solemnity of" preceding them*. (See pictorial icons at top right of page.) This is a reference to the importance of the Holy Day or Feast Day. To see the entire list of Holy Days, Fixed and Moveable Feast Days, click here.
Our Traditions
Though officially called "Holy Days of Obligation," at St. Augustine Catholic Church, we believe that these are "days ofcelebration," in which we reflect upon the impact of Jesus and Mary's life on our own.
U.S. Black Catholics--and many others of African descent--often celebrate the following two additional Feast Days:
August 28, St. Augustine of Hippo
(Patron Saint of our Church)
A special memorial Mass is offered to celebrate Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King on the official U.S. Holiday, which is the third Monday of January.

Days
Please update your calendars with the 2010 U.S. Holy Days of Obligation and Moveable Feasts. The six Holy Days are date-specific feasts and Moveable Feasts may change from year to year. Mass is observed according to the listed schedule, unless otherwise noted in the Bulletin. See the Saint or the celebrated Feast Day below.
“One of the natural signs of a true Paulist is that he would prefer to suffer from the excesses of liberty rather than from the arbitrary actions of tyranny.”
Father Isaac Hecker, founder of the Paulist Fathers
