.... and was reminded of a sermon I heard long ago at St. Catherine of Siena parish in Norwood, MA. It was the early Mass on Christmas morning and the priest gave a short but simple homily which went something like this: We are gathered here together today with joy to celebrate a great feast, the birth of our Savior. But let us not forget, even today, that Christ was born to die on the Cross. There would be no Christmas if Good Friday were not to come. With an early Lenten season-falling right on the heals of the Presentation, this image seems appropriate. (Image courtesy of Holy Cards for Your Inspiration))
