October, the tenth month of the year, is the month dedicated to the Holy Rosary. Catholics are encouraged to pray it. Additionally, Pope Leo XIV requests that Catholics pray for his intention for world peace.
October is filled with feast days of saints worthy of celebrating.
Here is the breakdown of the different feats of the church.
The commemorations of St. Faustina and Bl. Francis Xavier Seelos (USA) (October 5), St. Carlo Acutis (October 12), and Sts. John de Brébeuf, Isaac Jogues, and Companions (October 19), fall on a Sunday so they are superseded by the Sunday Liturgy.

Catholic Millennial. I hail from Philadelphia, PA. 4th-degree member of the Knights of Columbus. I enjoy writing, traveling, ballroom dancing, meeting new people, having deep conversations over a cold beer or wine (sometimes champagne), and petting adorable dogs that come right past me.
I hope to convey more messages from our culture with a twist of faith.
Some of my writings will range from pro-life (yes, men can have a say in the abortion issue, Karen), pop culture, history, and just some spontaneous reflections without warning
