Today we commemorate the Birth of John the Baptist. At the time when the days are the shortest, the sun stands lowest, it’s good to be reminded that John the Baptist was sent to proclaim the true light, the light of Jesus Christ. https://t.co/szXpQsQxwq

Did you know… today is the feast of John the Baptist? Born six months before his cousin Jesus, John announced Jesus as the ‘lamb who takes away the sin of the world.’ https://t.co/Tp9MyFY80x

First day of study leave. Another Bishop Ponet book (in Italian!), a cool William Turner rhyme in a Coverdale Bible, Cranmer's volume on Aquinas, and to top it all off St John the Baptist at Westminster Abbey Evensong. Giddy up! #reformazing https://t.co/vVL2OP20Vz

The only birthday the Church marks with Solemnity, apart from the Nativity of Our Saviour Himself, is that of His precursor, St John the Baptist. The foetal John jumps in the womb at the approach of the embryonic Saviour and His mother. https://t.co/vHnrSEMFVA

For the feast day of St John the Baptist: exemplars from Bairnsdale (Diocese of Gippsland), Boorowa (Diocese of Canberra and Goulburn), Nambucca Heads (Diocese of Grafton), and Wellington (Diocese of Bathurst). #anglican https://t.co/4UXoxcRF8a

The nativity of John the Baptist, so only six months until Christmas

@laurelizabethd The 24th June is normally The Feast of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist, which was put forward a day because of the Sacred Heart. No coincidence as my priest said in his sermon this morning here in Australia.

And in a way that only the Lord Almighty can, His Will has been done on the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, & on what would be normally the Nativity of St John the Baptist, who was the first to recognise the Christ child in the womb, while he was in his mother’s womb himself.
