It's time to take down those wreaths from our doors, put away the ornaments, and recycle the Christmas trees. Today is the Twelfth Day of Christmas. I hope yours was glorious and I hope that you had time to enjoy each day as it came along.
Every year I hear people saying that they wish Christmas could last longer. If we think of Christmas as the incarnation of Jesus Christ, we can always keep Christmas in our hearts even as we move on through the other seasons of the church year.
Tomorrow we enter Epiphany Season, which this year lasts for seven Sundays. I mentioned that in yesterday's sermon (posted on this blog) and will say more about that as time goes on.
In peace,
