It's Epiphany! Get Your Holy Water Ready!

In honor of the day the Magi came to adore the Christ Child, Catholics are encouraged to bless their homes. It used to be that the parish priest would conduct these blessings, and at one time we were privileged to have our pastor bless our home. Today it will be done by Big Daddy.

Happy Epiphany. (Do you say that?)

Actually, it's still fine to say "Merry Christmas!" The Christmas Season is not over until Monday, when we celebrate the Baptism of the Lord.
But hey, "Happy Epiphany" works too--and thank you!
