   December 27 honors Saint John the Apostle   
   (also called Saint John the Evangelist).   
   He is traditionally identified as:   
      
   One of the Twelve Apostles   
      
   The author of the Gospel of John, three epistles, and Revelation   
   (traditionally)   
      
      
   “The disciple whom Jesus loved”   
      
   In the Western Christian calendar, his feast day is December 27,   
   fittingly placed right after Christmas, since John’s writings strongly   
   emphasize the Incarnation (“the Word made flesh”).
