To: Salvation
To every Christian and to the Church seeking rebuild a darkened culture comes this instruction, this admonition from Nehemiah 8 to remember the feasts of the Lord: This day is holy to the Lord your God ... do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord must be your strength! ... And there was very great rejoicing.

That is simply MORE of the beauty of our faith.
We have the wonderful privilege of attending Mass every single day (which I do except on Saturdays) when the priest celebrates Mass.
Feast days are simply a DOUBLE celebration!

God has blessed me so much and I humbly thank Him for His many blessings.

agreed, when you have the fullness of the faith in His One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, you have it all....it’s a great feeling isnt it?

I love feast days. Paul says to me that if I want to celebrate do it but not to seek justification which is through Christ. I love going to mass as often as I can and hope to attend it more. I love my hour in front of the Blessed Sacrament. I don’t study the Bible because I have to but because I love it. There’s so much anger and negativity in these posts from our Protestant brothers and sisters. Why would we not want to spend more time honoring Jesus? I love my family and so enjoy hanging out with them. Jesus is my brother and I want to be with him in every way I can. The Sacraments give that to me as does the Bible. Why should I push Him away and sit in a dark room grumbling that I don’t have to do this or that and I’m just saved and that’s all there is. How sad and narrow.
