Christmas Season Celebration

"That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown."
--Linus Van Pelt (A Charlie Brown Christmas)

The Catholic Christmas season begins with the Christmas Eve vigil mass and ends with the feast of Christ's baptism. That's 20 days.


"The Midnight Mass" (Edward Timothy Hurley, Cincinnati, 1911)

As our priest observed at Christmas Eve mass, Catholics really know how to celebrate Christmas. I will endeavor to maintain a celebratory posture throughout this very special Christmas season.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

And thank you for your blog posts, I find them regularly entertaining, if not downright thought provoking.

Cheers,

Mark Raintree
