January 22nd Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children
The General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM), no. 373, designates January 22 as a particular day of prayer and penance, called the "Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children”: “In all the Dioceses of the United States of America, January 22 (or January 23, when January 22 falls on a Sunday) shall be observed as a particular day of prayer for the full restoration of the legal guarantee of the right to life and of penance for violations to the dignity of the human person committed through acts of abortion.” [1]
Note: In the Dioceses of the United States the Memorial of Saint Vincent, Deacon and Martyr [USA] and the Memorial of Saint Marianne Cope, Virgin [USA] are perpetually transferred to January 23rd.

Readings and Commentary: [3]
Reading I: Isaiah 49:1-6
Hear me, O islands,
listen, O distant peoples.
The Lord called me from birth,
from my mother's womb he gave me my name.
He made of me a sharp-edged sword
and concealed me in the shadow of his arm.
He made me a polished arrow,
in his quiver he hid me.
You are my servant, he said to me,
Israel, through whom I show my glory.
Though I thought I had toiled in vain,
and for nothing, uselessly, spent my strength,
Yet my reward is with the Lord,
my recompense is with my God.
For now the Lord has spoken
who formed me as his servant from the womb,
That Jacob may be brought back to him
and Israel gathered to him;
And I am made glorious in the sight of the Lord,
and my God is now my strength!
It is too little, he says, for you to be my servant,
to raise up the tribes of Jacob,
and restore the survivors of Israel;
I will make you a light to the nations,
that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.
-------------------------------------------
Commentary on Is 49:1-6
In this passage, the beginning of the second of the four "Servant of the Lord" or “Suffering Servant” oracles, the Prophet Isaiah speaks of his own call of service to God. It presents him as “another Jeremiah”: He is called from his mother’s womb (see Jeremiah 1:5). The prophet has a vocation to the gentiles (Jeremiah 1:10; Jeremiah 25:15ff) to bring a message of both doom and happiness (Jeremiah 16:19-21). [4] We note that God sets his servants on their course from before their birth (see also Luke 1:15 (St. John the Baptist), Luke 1:31 (Jesus) and Galatians 1:15 (St. Paul the Apostle)).
The servant learns that, even at times when his effort seems to have failed (“Though I thought I had toiled in vain”), it is God’s strength and plan that succeeds (“my recompense is with my God”)(see also 1 Corinthians 4:1-5). The prophet’s role is expanded at the end of the passage to “reach to the ends of the earth,” a revelation further elaborated in Genesis 12:3; Luke 2:31-32; and Acts 13:47.

Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 8:4-5, 6-7, 8-9
R. (4b) Let us see your face, Lord, and we shall be saved.
When I behold your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars which you set in place—
What is man that you should be mindful of him,
or the son of man that you should care for him?
R. Let us see your face, Lord, and we shall be saved.
You have made him little less than the angels,
and crowned him with glory and honor.
You have given him rule over the works of your hands,
putting all things under his feet.
R. Let us see your face, Lord, and we shall be saved.
All sheep and oxen,
yes, and the beasts of the field,
The birds of the air, the fishes of the sea,
and whatever swims the paths of the seas.
R. Let us see your face, Lord, and we shall be saved.
-------------------------------------------
Commentary on Ps 8:4-5, 6-7, 8-9
Psalm 8 is a song of thanksgiving for the creation event described in Genesis. The song marvels at God’s great work, his creation, and the life he gave us. The singer expresses the humility of a people who, through no merit of their own, God has made little less than angels and given a place of honor. Having done all this, mankind accepts great responsibility for stewardship.
CCC: Ps 8:6 2566, 2809
-------------------------------------------
Reading 2: Ephesians 3:14-21
Brothers and sisters:
I kneel before the Father,
from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
that he may grant you in accord with the riches of his glory
to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner self,
and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith;
that you, rooted and grounded in love,
may have strength to comprehend with all the holy ones
what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge,
so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to accomplish far more than all we ask or imagine,
by the power at work within us,
to him be glory in the Church and in Christ Jesus
to all generations, forever and ever. Amen..
-------------------------------------------
Commentary on Eph 3:14-21
St. Paul has informed the Ephesians of the difficulties (imprisonment) he is facing, but has asked them to stay focused on their own spiritual growth, rather than concern themselves over his “afflictions” (Ephesians 3:1). He offers them the “Apostle’s Prayer." “The apostle prays that those he is addressing may, like the rest of the church, deepen their understanding of God's plan of salvation in Christ. It is a plan that affects the whole universe (Ephesians 3:15) with the breadth and length and height and depth of God's love in Christ (Ephesians 3:18) or possibly the universe in all its dimensions. The apostle prays that they may perceive the redemptive love of Christ for them and be completely immersed in the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:19).” [5]

Gospel: Luke 1:39-56
Mary set out
and traveled to the hill country in haste
to a town of Judah,
where she entered the house of Zechariah
and greeted Elizabeth.
When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting,
the infant leaped in her womb,
and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit,
cried out in a loud voice and said,
"Most blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
And how does this happen to me,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears,
the infant in my womb leaped for joy.
Blessed are you who believed
that what was spoken to you by the Lord
would be fulfilled."
And Mary said:
"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever."
Mary remained with her about three months
and then returned to her home.
-------------------------------------------
Commentary on Lk 1:39-56
The Gospel selection from St. Luke gives us the story of Mary’s journey from Nazareth, over the mountains to Hebron, south of Jerusalem, to visit her cousin St. Elizabeth, who was also with child. St. Elizabeth’s greeting gives us substance for the “Hail Mary,” and Mary’s response is the great Canticle of Mary, which exemplifies her faith and faithfulness appropriate for the Mother of Jesus, who is the Christ.
Mary’s meeting with Elizabeth follows the annunciation by Gabriel that she would carry the Son of God, which proclaims the coming of the Lord, and the faith of Mary before the nativity event. We note that Elizabeth is first to identify Jesus as Lord as she says:” how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” She not only professes the identity of the infant, but foreshadows Mary’s leadership standing, elevating the stature of her much younger cousin with reverence. Elizabeth continues her praise of Mary by establishing that her (Mary’s) faith had allowed her to accept even the incredible role God had offered her.
In response we hear Mary’s humility as she gives us the Magnificat: “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior.” This opening phrase establishes that the Blessed Mother gives herself to God eternally (her eternal self or soul) and completely (the very core of her being or spirit). What follows in her great song is an abject expression of faith in the Father’s omnipotence, and her own humility and awe in the face of his request of her to carry God’s only Son.

-------------------------------------------
Reflection:
Today is designated a day of prayer and penance for the legal protection of unborn children. We note the designation “prayer and penance” indicating that we are asked not only to pray for our countries justice system to reform itself but also to transform our own actions that may have supported the current legalization of abortion on demand. Given the recorded statistics, we know that many Catholics voted for the current (and past) candidates who, in many cases claimed to be Catholic, were responsible for continuing and advancing the support for the abortion industry supported by our federal government. For those individuals, penance should be considered.
Using Scripture as our starting point, this is why those who support legalization of infanticide should strongly consider acts of penance. First, the Lord gave us the Great Commandment:
“You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment.
The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.” (Matthew 22:36ff)
Boiled down to its very basic principle it means to love God’s creation and love those who share it with us. The inverse of this commandment is a short definition of sin: “Sin is a conscious failure to love.” (love self, love others, love what God created and gave to us as conservators).
The practical application of the Great Commandment starts with treating all persons, regardless of their sex (to include sexual identity), race, creed, national origin, with respect due the human person who was created through the will of the father in his image. We would even be so bold as to say this should include persons with political views that conflict with our own in this polarized society. When we look at the whole human person as being worthy of respect, we must encompass their entire lifespan, from conception to natural death. To do otherwise is hypocritical! (I once asked a nephew, in a heated discussion about abortion how old a human must be to be considered human. He shocked me when he (in all seriousness) said “about two years old.”)
We contrast this view and application of the Great Commandment with the predominate liberal social view that “a woman should have the right to choose what to do with her own body.” On the face of it, that sounds reasonable. However, let’s take that idea apart. Once the gift of human life is bestowed upon a woman and her partner (whom we presume to be her husband, since sexual intercourse outside marriage is considered a sin – conscious failure to love (disrespect of another in illicit sexual union is disrespect even if it is apparently consensual). Pregnancy now involves three people, one of whom cannot provide consent to any action decided by one or both of the partners. Where is the respect for that human person? But we lapse into the actual morality of radical birth control and its impact on women.
What our day of prayer is focused on is a justice system that systematically destroys human life and while it claims that it is giving women the right to choose, it turns around and says they do not have the right to reject COVID vaccination even though it is the same body. The justice system should not be supporting or paying for services that presume people are not intelligent enough to make decisions and understand consequences. We are praying for a change of heart and prayer works.
Since the Supreme Court made its decision on Roe v. Wade in 1973, people have been praying for a change of heart, and it appears to be working. We must not let up. Pray for the rights and dignity of all people are part of our greatest commandment by the Lord, who is love. Let us work diligently to see justice for our brothers and sisters at all stages of life with a legal system that respects life at all stages.

INTRODUCTION
Each year the Secretariat of
Divine Worship of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops publishes the Liturgical
Calendar for the Dioceses of the United
States of America. This Calendar is used
by authors of ordines and other
liturgical aids published to foster the celebration of the liturgy in our country.
The Calendar is based upon the General Roman Calendar, promulgated by Pope
Saint Paul VI on February 14, 1969, subsequently amended by the Holy See, and
the Proper Calendar for the Dioceses of the United States of America, approved
by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.1 This Calendar has been updated to reflect the names
and titles of the various liturgical days in conformity with the Roman Missal, Third Edition.
The General Instruction of the Roman Missal reminds us that in the cycles
of readings and prayers
proclaimed throughout the year in the sacred liturgy “the mysteries of
redemption are celebrated so as to be in some way made present.” Thus may each
celebration of the Holy Eucharist which is served by this Calendar be for the
Church in the United States of America “the high point both of the action by
which God sanctifies the world in Christ and of the worship that the human race
offers to the Father, adoring him through Christ, the Son of God, in the Holy Spirit.”2
Rev. Andrew Menke Executive
Director
USCCB Secretariat of Divine
Worship
About this “linked” version: This version of the 2022 liturgical calendar is produced by Dcn. Jim Miles, St. Thomas the Apostle Parish, Ann Arbor, Michigan, Diocese of Lansing. It contains links to published commentaries and reflections that correspond to Cycle C, Year II readings from the Lectionary for Mass. These works contain readings from the New American Bible which is copyrighted by the USCCB and this republication is not authorized by them. The work is intended for private use only.
1 For the significance of the several grades or kinds of celebrations,
the norms of the Roman Calendar should be consulted (cf. Liturgy Documentary Series 6: Norms Governing Liturgical Calendars,
Washington, DC: USCC, 1984). For information concerning the choice of texts and
formularies, the General Instruction of
the Roman Missal and the Introduction to the 1998 revised Lectionary for Mass (cf.
Liturgy Documentary Series 1: Lectionary for Mass,
Introduction, Washington, DC: USCC, 1998) should be consulted.

The cycles
given above have been used in the preparation of this Calendar. The readings
from the Proper of Time and Proper
of Saints have been used for all Solemnities and all Feasts since they must
take the place of the weekday readings for those respective days. The readings
from the weekday cycle generally are to be used even on days on which a
Memorial or Optional Memorial of a Saint occurs. The exceptions to this rule
are the Memorials or Optional Memorials which have “proper readings” (usually
only the Gospel)
assigned to them in the Lectionary
for Mass and which must be used on those days.
Substitutions from the Commons or Proper of Saints may be made for the other
readings suggested for those Memorials or Optional Memorials. The Priest
Celebrant, however, should not omit “too often or without sufficient cause the
readings assigned for each day in the weekday Lectionary” (Introduction to the Lectionary for Mass, no. 83). In this
Calendar, Optional Memorials are designated by the use of italics within brackets.
The Scripture citations and Lectionary numbers for all readings are
from the Lectionary for Mass for Use in
the Dioceses of the United States of America, second typical edition
(1998/2001), and the Lectionary for Mass
Supplement (2017), which is based on the Ordo Lectionum Missæ, editio typica altera (1981). The spellings of
the names of Saints and Blesseds are from the Roman Missal, Third Edition (2011), based on the Missale Romanum, editio typica tertia
emendata (2008).

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES
1.
Scripture citations are based on the New American Bible with the revised New Testament and may differ
slightly from the citations given in the Ordo
Lectionum Missæ (1981) due to difference in versification.
2.
In the preparation of diocesan and provincial Calendars
and ordines, the dedication of diocesan
cathedrals, the dedication of parish churches, and special days of prayer (cf. General Instruction of the Roman Missal [GIRM],
no. 373) should be added, along with other commemorations of Saints and
Blesseds which are included in those particular Calendars. More information is available in the Universal Norms on the Liturgical Year and the Calendar,
particularly Chapter II.
3.
“On Saturdays in Ordinary Time when no Obligatory Memorial
occurs, an Optional
Memorial of the Blessed Virgin Mary may be celebrated” (Universal Norms on the Liturgical Year and
the Calendar, no. 15). This is indicated in the Calendar by “BVM.” The
readings and prayers may be selected
from the Common
of the Blessed Virgin Mary or Votive
Masses of the Blessed
Virgin Mary in the Roman Missal, or
the Collection of Masses of the Blessed
Virgin Mary.
4.
In a decree dated March 23, 1992, the Bishop of Honolulu designated
Christmas and the Immaculate Conception as the only two Holydays of Obligation
for the State of Hawaii. This implements the indult received from the
Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments on May 26,
1990, and the subsequent nihil obstat from
the National Conference of Catholic Bishops allowing Hawaii to legislate on
this matter in accord with the policies of the Episcopal Conference of the
Pacific (CEPAC).
5.
This liturgical Calendar has entries for Independence Day and
Thanksgiving Day, since they are inscribed in the Proper Calendar for the
Dioceses of the United States of America, but it does not include other
civic holidays commonly
celebrated in this country (for example, Martin
Luther King,
Jr. Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc.). Respecting the liturgical norms (cf.
GIRM, nos. 368-378), the Roman Missal offers
appropriate Masses, but this Calendar makes no suggestions for those holidays.
6.
The 2022 liturgical year begins on the First Sunday of Advent, November
28, 2021. During the year 2022:
a.
Sunday, December 12, 2021 is the Third Sunday of Advent, and the Feast
of Our Lady of Guadalupe is omitted this year. Our Lady of Guadalupe may be
appropriately honored in the Homily, Universal Prayer, and hymns during the
Sunday liturgy. If pastoral advantage
calls for it (cf. GIRM, no. 376), a Votive Mass of Our Lady of Guadalupe may be celebrated on a weekday before or after
December 12, with the proper readings and prayers.
b.
Saturday, January 1, 2022 is the Solemnity of Mary, the Holy Mother
of God, and Monday, August 15
is the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This year, the obligation to attend Mass on these
dates is abrogated, in accord with the complementary norm to canon 1246 §2
confirmed for the dioceses of the United States of America.
c.
Thursday, May 26 is the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord in the
ecclesiastical provinces of Boston, Hartford, New York, Newark, Omaha, and
Philadelphia, while all other ecclesiastical provinces of the United States of
America have transferred this Solemnity to the following Sunday,
May 29. In those archdioceses and dioceses, Thursday, May 26 is observed as the
Memorial of Saint Philip Neri, Priest.
d.
Friday, June 24 is the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, and
at the direction of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of
the Sacraments, the Solemnity of the
Nativity of Saint John the Baptist is transferred this year to Thursday, June
23. However, where Saint John the Baptist is the patron of a nation, diocese,
city, or religious community, the Solemnity
of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist is instead celebrated on Friday, June 24, and the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart
of Jesus is transferred to Thursday, June 23.
e.
Since a Sunday
does not occur between December
25 and January 1, 2023, the Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph
is celebrated on Friday, December 30 with only one reading before the Gospel.
