The Christmas season, like the Roman Saturnalia, is heralded by the welcoming
of Santa and the cycle ends with the feast of Epiphany, marked on January 7 by the new Julian calendar, or January 20 by the Gregorian. On Epiphany Eve there is a meatless holy supper
and the solemn blessing of water, which recalls Christ’s Baptism by St. John. Celebrate the Christmas Feast Joyous Season Carols with 123Christians.
