It's nice to know that the Epiphany is still recognized as a holiday and a holy day. We celebrate it as a family. Sadly, in my diocese, the Epiphany has been moved to the first Sunday after Easter, changing the notion of the 12 days of Christmas, the celebrating traditionally done from Christmas until the Epiphany. And now of course the New Years feast is now optional when on a Sat or Mon. Our parish had one mass.

I'm guessing you meant 'after Christmass' rather than 'after Easter'.
