  • January 5th Note
    With the return back to work, the kids return to school, and the recovery from all of the food eaten over the Christmas season – it is easy to say that Christmas is over on the 26th. Even though the department stores have packed up Christmas, we celebrate his birth all year long. Tomorrow we celebrate the “Gentile Christmas.” Epiphany is the observance of the Wise Men adoring the infant Jesus.
