Celebrating the Feast of the Holy Name

January 1, 2019 By Allison Sandlin Liles Leave a Comment

Today, eight days into the Christmas season, the Episcopal Church celebrates the Feast of the Holy Name. We celebrate this feast day on January 1st each year because it’s the day when Jesus was named by his parents and circumcised.
