Yes! Today begins the traditional celebration of the O Antiphons! What are the O Antiphons? Well, each time you sing "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" (the whole song) you're singing them!
At our home, we have a "Jesse Tree" and each day, from today up to ChristMass Eve, we put another ornament on the tree for the O Antiphons!
Today, the 17th, is Sapientia - or Wisdom.
O come, O Wisdom from on high,
who ordered all things mightily;
to us the path of knowledge show
and teach us in its ways to go.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
shall come to thee, O Israel.

2) Posts more than 4 weeks old are set to automatically save new comments for moderation - so your comment may not show up immediately if you're responding to an older post.
3) The "Spam Filter" is on - and randomly messages get caught in that filter. I have no control over which messages get caught in the spam filter and those that do must wait for me to mark them as "not spam." A message caught by the spam filter may show up for a moment, making you think it posted, and then disappear. Do not assume I have deleted your comment, it's probably just the spam filter and it will show up.
