Catholic Holy Days of Obligation
Catholic Liturgical Calendar

The Catholic Holy Days of Obligation chart shows the dates for the Universal Church and for the various countries around the world. There are six Catholic Holy Days in the United States - which see below.

The St. Anne's Helper Catholic Confirmation catechism is an audio book of the Baltimore Catechism that makes memorizing the holy days easy. Study the Catholic Bible to find an explanation of most of the holy days, especially Christmas, the Circumcision, and the Ascension of Jesus.

Need a Holy Day Reminder? We offer you a free monthly reminder of the Catholic holy days that also mentions the dates for the nine First Fridays and the five First Saturdays. Sometimes it's tricky when the First Saturday comes before the First Friday and it's good to have a reminder. We also mention the major Catholic feast days and seasonal highlights of the Catholic liturgical calendar. Simply enter your regular email address in the white box in the top left of our web pages.

Looking for more Catholic Feast Days? Here's a great list by month according to the 1962 Catholic liturgical calendar that is used with the 1962 Roman Missal.

Check your local Ordo for what is required on the Holy Days in these lists.

St. Anne's Audio Catechism for Confirmation teaches the Catholic Holy Days of Obligation in the USA. St. Anne's Catechism Copybooks also reinforce learning the answers. They use the copybook method to improve memorization, penmanship, reading and spelling!

The Roman Catholic calendar names the Catholic Holy Days of Obligation as well as the Catholic saints names to use for Baptism or Confirmation. It frequently has a separate list of patron saints, as well. Knowing the specific patron saint is handy for special dedications or gifts. The Catholic Encyclopedia or Butler's Lives of the Saints (not Attwater's rewrite) are great resources, too.

The Catholic Missal prayers, readings, and thoughts for the day are usually placed in the Catholic liturgical calendar according to the anniversary date of the saint's death. Newly canonized saints can be found on calendars that use the new liturgical year. TAN Books has a Catholic calendar that lists both the traditional Catholic calendar and the new.

If you're not in for the higher prices of Catholic books and want to start your own collection of Catholic ebooks, I highly recommend getting an Amazon Kindle or Kindle Fire. There are many Catholic Kindle Books and thousands of free Kindle Books. We have friends who are in the military and are so glad to have an ereader so that they do not have so many books to pack. It greatly reduces the weight so that it is easier to stay under the weight limits for traveling and moving. Ereaders make awesome gifts, too.
