We read at Luke 2:21:
"After eight days had passed, it was time to circumcise the child; and he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb."
It is surprising that the Catholic Church which gives supreme importance to the Holy Name of Jesus, does not commemorate the day of naming of the Son of God by way of a Feast, while some other denominations do. My question therefore is: Why does the Catholic Church not celebrate the Feast of Naming of Jesus ?
