Presentation Day

Jesus is presented in the TEMPLE.

The first-born, a special role. I happen to be the first-born of parents who would bave been married 56 years today, on Feb. 2, 2008. I happen to love Feb. 2. each year.

Not only is it for me the anniversary of my parent's wedding anniversary, it is the feast of the Presantation of the Lord, it is GROUNDHOG DAY!

Feb. 2, is such a "quiet day", but the Feast is so full of meaning, light, and grace:

THE FEAST OF THE PRESENTATION OF THE LORD IS ONE OF THE MAJOR FEASTS OF LIGHT IN THE CATHOLIC TRADITION. ]
