Assessment

Responding to the request for assessment. This is a great "start-class" article. The prose could use just a little bit of work. A few suggestions: (1) take the references at the end, and add in-text citations throughout the article, (2) add external links, (3) get the article into the proper categories. -- Pastordavid 19:31, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Feast Day Oct 19 or Oct 20?

The article lists St. Paul of the Cross' feast day as Oct 19. The article at http://www.catholic.org/saints/saint.php?saint_id=810 lists his feast day as Oct 20. Is this Wikipedia article incorrect? -- JeffFerguson 14:17, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To my knowledge, he is still celebrated on 19 October in the universal church; it is in the dioceses of the US that he is celebrated on 20 October. Carl.bunderson (talk) 18:57, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Feast Day of St. Paul of the Cross (Optional Memorial)is celebrated in the United States on 20 October due to a request of the U.S. Provinces of the Congregation of the Passion. The motivation was that the 19 October date conflicted with the Memorial of Isaac Jogues and John de Brebeuf, priests and martyrs, and companions, martyrs celebrated in the diocese of the United States on 19 October.
