Father Anton's Weekly Column

2nd Sunday Of The Year A

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

May I begin by wishing you all a Very Happy and Blessed New Year. Also, I hope that Christmas has gone well and that you continue to enjoy the season which officially ends next Sunday with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord. If you enjoy your Christmas decorations then you can celebrate up to the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, Monday, February 2nd.
