Thursday – 34th Week of Ordinary Time B – Memorial of Saint James of the Marches
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, in the Franciscan world today, we celebrate the Memorial of Saint James of the Marches and we are reminded of his significant role in the history of the Franciscan Order and his lasting impact on the Church and our Catholic faith. Saint James was not only a devoted Franciscan but also an evangelizer whose life emulated the mission of our Lord: to bring the Good News to all, especially to those who are lost and suffering.
