Today is the Ordinary Feast of the Holy Innocents. 
Two more links have been added. One with information 
about the Slaughter of the Innocents and another with the 
Coventry Carol, a Christmas song
about the Slaughter of the Innocents.

My true love gave to me.......
Four calling birds........"

the Four Gospel Writers...

“Go forth to the whole world and 
preach the Gospel to every  creature."
