On the eighteenth day of February will fall Ash Wednesday, and the beginning of the fast of the most sacred Lenten season.
On the fifth day of April we will celebrate with joy Easter Day, the Paschal feast of our Lord Jesus Christ.
On the fourteenth day of May will be the Ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ.
On the twenty-fourth day of May will be the feast of Pentecost.
On the thirty-first day of May, the feast of the Blessed Holy Trinity, our patronal feast day, will be observed.
