Liturgical Day: Monday January 19
    Gospel (Mk 2, 18-22): As John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting, come and say to Jesus: "Why is it that John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast ? '. Jesus said, "Can not fast the wedding guests while the bridegroom is with them? While they have the bridegroom can not fast. Days will come when they will be taken from the groom; then they will fast in that day.

"No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for otherwise, the patch pulls away from it, the new from the old, and a worse tear is made. No one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise, the wine will burst the skins and spoil both the wine and the skins: but they put new wine into fresh wineskins. "
