A Thought for Advent
Have you mailed your Christmas cards yet? No? Well, don’t. Not yet at least. Allow me to explain…
Advent started this past Sunday (November 28) and continues on into December 24, the later part of which kicks off the Christmas season. Christmas continues until the Baptism of the Lord which this liturgical year occurs on January 9.
So, in keeping with the liturgical calendar and not the retail calendar, I’d like to invite anyone who happens upon this blog to wait until Christmas to send Christmas cards. In the mean time, send advent cards and make good use of this time of waiting and preparation.
