Today, June 24th, We Celebrate The Nativity of St. John the Baptist, who spent his adult life preparing the way for Jesus, and proclaiming that “the Kingdom of Heaven is close at hand.”.
Only three birthdays are celebrated on the Church’s liturgical calendar, the Nativity of Our Lord (December 25), the Nativity of His Mother (September 8), and the Nativity of His forerunner, John the Baptist, on June 24. St. John the Baptist was set apart from the womb to prepare the way of the Lord and was a significant figure connected to the Incarnation and the Redemption.

THE LORD IS MY LIGHT AND MY SALVATION ✊
For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock. — Psalms 27:5 NIV
Gospel of the Day (Luke 1,57-66.80)
His father asked for a tablet and wrote, "John is his name," and all were amazed.
Immediately his mouth was opened, his tongue freed, and he spoke blessing God.
