Dots


Q: What do the dots next to the saints mean (in the side bar)? For example:

R 01/20 - m

ST. SEBASTIAN
R 01/21 - M

ST. AGNES
R 01/22 - m

ST. VINCENT
W 01/24 - M

St. Francis de Sales
W 01/25 - F

Conversion of Paul
W 01/26 - M

SS. Timothy & Titus

A: The dots represent the liturgical color to be used when celebrating Mass on that day.
Red – represent martyrs who died for the faith.
White – represents those who have beatified or canonized but did not die in defense of the faith.

Thanks for asking, Ken and Carol!

It is a simple cut and paste. I site the resource at the bottom :-)
Nothing fancy!

Thanks Peg for the quick answer. I plead guilty to teasing sometimes, and irony always. It helps make the medicine go down.

K&C,
I am smiling -- since you are a kidder, you would have gotten a kick out of my reaction at first reading of your question. Dots? Oh no, the fumes are somehow escaping through the computer screen!!!! People are seeing dots! LOL
THAT kind of thinking just goes to show you how much those paint fumes got to me.
Blessings to you and yours!
