  Miserere Mei — Authority: 111
  It has become my tradition to attend church service on Christmas Day. This is a tradition generally abandoned in our present time, sadly.

• Fear of the Church Calendar

  
  http://loveacceptforgive.wordpress.com — Authority: 126
  While many liturgical churches retain the celebration of the various seasons of the historical church calendar, it seems to have lost favor among much of the modern Church.
