1-When December 20 falls on the Sunday before Christ's Nativity, St. Ignatius Day is transferred to the day before. Consult the Weekend Service Texts page for the proper text.

2-In 2011, the commemoration of St. Barnabas is transferred to June 10 because the Saturday of the Souls before Pentecost falls on June 11. St. Barnabas is thus celebrated with the Leave-taking of the Ascension.

3-In 2009, the services for St. Joseph have been revised with the complete translation from the Arabic. Please print these for future parish use.
