And everything that
comes your way.
May you leave behind
all anger, pain, fear and sadness
as the year makes a fresh start.

Christmas does not end at midnight on Christmas Day! The Christmas season runs from Christmas Eve all the way to Epiphany on 6 January and then the season of Epiphany lasts until Candlemas on 2 February, when we celebrate the presentation of Christ at the temple.
Epiphany, the date in the Church’s calendar in which Christians remember the visit of the wise men from the East to present gifts to Jesus.

Hark the herald angels sing
