February 2, 2024: Feast of the Presentation of the Lord

Mary, Blessed Mother, and St. Joseph went to the Temple in Jerusalem to present Jesus to the Lord.  And it was the event when Jesus presented Himself as Lord to the world.

With deep faith keeping them in tune with God, Saints Simeon and Anne drew close to Jesus and praised God for revealing Himself in the Infant, and for the Light He brings.

Indeed, Jesus is the Light of the World, and purifies our hearts so that we may enter into God's presence.  Constantly keeping close to Him, we can continually draw from His Light and shine its brilliance into the world by our lives.

Merry Candlemas!
