At Catholic youth gatherings in this diocese there is a long standing tradition of a call and response that goes something like this: Someone yells, “There ain’t on party like a Catholic party!” The crowd replies, “‘Cause a Catholic party don’t stop, HUH!”

Here’s praying that you are having a spiritually fruitful and merry Christmas season. The Christmas party ain’t over, remember, until we celebrate the Baptism of the Lord on January 12. And then we just keep right on partying until …. , well, until forever, ’cause Catholic party don’t stop, HUH! 

Oh, Happy New Year, too.

Party on!
