Happy New Year

Alright, folks -- confetti up....



...actually, it just begins with this....

But still, you get the idea.

All the blessings of Advent and to you and yours -- time's almost up for those (liturgical) New Year's resolutions, so those of us who haven't come up with one yet gotta think fast.

And to kick it off right: hymns... both ancient...



...and modern....



Buon'anno, church -- may it be a great one for us all, and may we each make the most of it.
