CHRISTMAS...
IS NOT A DAY, BUT A SEASON!
Sure the stores are having after Christmas sales, and the Valentine's day items are on the shelves,but we as Catholics celebrate not only the day, but the Season of Christmas. The Church and altar are dressed in white and gold, the colors of celebration. And we do not stop celebrating until the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord in January and the return to ordinary time. So, enjoy..and experience this blessed time of year with your family!
As promised on our Advent page...here are Blessings for your Christmas Celebrations..
