Transfiguration
Today is a feast day in the church, the Feast of the Transfiguration. It always falls on August sixth. And whether August sixth is a Sunday or a Wednesday, it’s the Feast of the Transfiguration. We have the white vestments and the white hangings to remind us of this great feast. The Transfiguration is decribed to us in the Gospel reading for today, (Luke 9:28-36).
