NOTE: Dates highlighted in light red may have other saints and/or different "ranks" of the listed sanctoral celebrations in the Lectionary Supplement for the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits).
For example, Jan. 3 (The Most Holy Name of Jesus) is an "Optional Memorial" in the universal calendar, but a "Solemnity" for the Society of Jesus.
Also, Jan. 19, Feb. 4, and many other days have Memorials or Optional Memorials of Jesuit saints not included on the Church's universal calendar.

and USA editions;
for example, "Saint Mary..." is changed to "Blessed
Virgin Mary..." or "Our Lady of
";
"For those who do works
of mercy" is changed to "For Those Who Work for the Underprivileged";
etc.
