That's when I celebrated it. I follow the normal calendar

The calendar for the ancient Roman Rite is normal. [url="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/faith/article4159522.ece"]According to[/url] Caridnal Hoyos, the Holy Father wants the extraordinary form to be a normal part of every Latin Catholic's liturgical life.

Are seminaries truly incorporating education for new priests to be competent to offer Mass in the EF?

Some of them are. I saw the following in a classroom at Mount St. Mary's Seminary while there on the March For Life trip:

Well... you might celebrate St. Thomas Aquinas, and others might celebrate Perpetua and Felicity.... but I'll celebrate the Resurrection, as on Sunday's all feasts are trumped by Sunday.

So really today is neither Aquinas' feast nor Perpetua and Felicity's feast, because it is the feast of the Resurrection.

While the Mass and Office of the day are that of the Third Sunday of Lent, there is still a commemoration of St. Thomas Aquinas at Lauds.

Must be part of the extraordinary form of Liturgy of the Hours because as far as I know the ordinary breviary has no such commemoration on Sunday's

Or I pray wrong

I'm talking about the extraordinary form of the Office. I don't know how to pray the Liturgy of the Hours.

This...because Sunday should only be a day of honouring Our Lord and no other...extraordinary form, normal form, traditional, or non-traditional...doesn't matter...it's the Lord's Day....

By honoring Christ's saints, one is honoring the Lord Himself.

...well, technically, all honour we give to Saints is honour to God...but that still doesn't mean that Sundays should be shared with any other than the Lord Himself...

...well, at least that was what was taught at the convent...even for great Dominican Saints as our brother, St. Thomas. If his feast landed on a Sunday...guess what? We were celebrating it the next day...Monday...
