12th Day of Christmas

 

Today is the Twelfth Day of Christmas! It is the eve of Epiphany - and tomorrow starts the Epiphany Season - BUT - keep in mind, IT'S STILL CHRISTMASTIDE! Christmastide lasts through February 2nd!

The Twelfth Day we recall the 12 points of doctrine in the Apostle's Creed.
  1. I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. 
  2. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. 
  3. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary. 
  4. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. 
  5. He descended into hell. On the third day, he rose again. 
  6. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. 
  7. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. 
  8. I believe in the Holy Ghost, 
  9. the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, 
  10. the forgiveness of sins, 
  11. the resurrection of the body, 
  12. and life everlasting.
