As we continue in this beautiful Christmas Season celebrating God’s Son becoming flesh by His Birth in Bethlehem and as we prepare to begin a new calendar year, perhaps this is a good time to reflect on the life of Saint Peter’s Parish.
The Epiphany of the Lord, which we celebrate today, is a feast older than Christmas. In many countries, this day (not Christmas) is the day for gift-giving in honor of the gifts received by the Christ Child. Why is this ancient feast so important in the life of the Church when most of society has already put Christmas behind them?
This last day of the calendar year is the Feast of the Holy Family. On the first of January the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God. Perhaps a reflection during this Christmas Season on “time” is appropriate. The poem and commentary by Wikipedia.
