Jan 5th : Last Day of Christmas
On the 12th day of Christmas my true love gave to me…

Twelve Drummers Drumming
The twelve points of doctrine in the Apostle’s Creed: 1) I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. 2) I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. 3) He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. 4) He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell [the grave]. 5) On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. 6) He will come again to judge the living and the dead. 7) I believe in the Holy Spirit, 8) the holy catholic Church, 9) the communion of saints, 10) the forgiveness of sins, 11) the resurrection of the body, 12) and life everlasting.
* So, today is the last day of Christmas but if you’re like many, you’ve stopped listening to Christmas songs even before the New Year and if you’re a shopkeeper, you’ve already replaced the Christmas tree with CNY decorations since the first day of this year ![]()
Tomorrow is Epiphany, January 6. So what is Epiphany actually? In actual terms, it means “to show” or “to make known” or even “to reveal.” In the church’s term, it is when the Three Wise Men brought gifts to baby Jesus, who by doing so “reveal” to the world as Lord and King. So now you know. Impress your friends with that knowledge and you can be in a “holier than thou” attitude hehe.
