I'm confused where is the list? I just went to mass Jan. 1 which is a holy day of obligation. I haven't researched the history hopefully someone else has and will tell us about it. Mass, as usual, was beautiful!
all for JESUS!!

[/quote]The "list" would be on the calendar (see the row of "icons" at the top of your screen) ... scattered among the calendar dates in the year.

I would suppose that your church was celebrating the Circumcision of Christ, on the eighth day after His birth, as mine did. We have a separate discussion of the history of that celebration, which started in the "Presentation of Christ to the Temple" topic in this area, and which moved to the "Reasoned Debates" area (same topic name I think).

The history is pre-Schism, so it works for your Church as well as mine.
