The Commemoration (prayer) page currently discusses the meaning of this liturgical term in the Roman Catholic Church. I think it is a specific example of the more general use of the term in other religions, including the Anglican Church, so it should be moved here.

Looks like they're two different concepts. In the traditional Catholic rite, Commemorations are made when multiple feasts occur on the same day, for example, if March 17 is a Sunday (the occurring Sunday of Lent or Passiontide and St. Patrick), or January 18 (Chair of St. Peter at Rome and St. Prisca). The higher-ranking is fully celebrated, with the readings and prayers proper to that day, with the other having only a few of its prayers used, at Vespers, Matins, Lauds, and Mass. The Anglican use of the term looks more like the Catholic rank of Optional Memorial, in the new calendar, where the priest can choose either to celebrate the feast or the occurring feria, with nothing said of the other.

- The above is correct but it may still be worthy of a move...there has not been many thoughts on this. -- SECisek 18:31, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
