"Traditional Catholic Church"

Today the Traditional Catholic Church celebrates the Feast the of, the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Feast of this Visitation was instituted for the whole world in the year 1389 by Pope Urban VI. It recalls the visit of the Blessed Virgin Mary to her cousin Elizabeth. The circumstances of her visit are described in today's Gospel, especially the sanctification of Saint John the Baptist in his mother's womb.
Ember Friday was the original date for this feast. The celebration by the Greeks on the 2nd of July, was the placing of the robe of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the Basilica of Blachernae in the year 469 became in the Latin church, the commemoration of the visitation of Virgin Mary to the home of Zachary and Elizabeth, the parents of Saint John the Baptist. It was kept by the Franciscans as early as the year 1263; the Council of Basel, in the year 1431 made it a holy day of obligation.
In honor of this mystery, Saint Francis de Sales instituted the order of the nuns of the Visitation. The original design of this kindly saint was that the nuns should imitate the Blessed Virgin Mary in Her charitable assistance in the house of her cousin Elizabeth, who, though well advanced in years, was miraculously about to become a mother. Providence, however, thought fit to alter the plan while still in the hands of the designer, so that the latter was accustomed jestingly to say that he had made something which he had never intended to make, whereas he could not make that which he would in reality have wished to have made.
