The celebration was restored to the General Roman Calendar with the 2002 Roman Missal. In Roman Catholicism the month of January is traditionally dedicated to the Holy Name of Jesus. In some Anglican churches including the Episcopal Church in the United States of America, the feast is observed on 1 January.

From 1849 until 1969, a separate Feast of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ was assigned originally to the first Sunday in July, later to the first day of the month. This feast was removed from the General Roman Calendar in 1969,
