I usually wait until the coldest day in December and then decide to put them up - I then take them down the coldest day in January :)

I do not put light up outside.  We do put them up on all the windows inside.

We don't do lights. We celebrate Christmas and Jesus, but I figure that I don't need outdoor lights to do that! I might change my mind if I were in a different neighborhood. But it is too much of a hassle in my mind.

I live in an apartment that has a balcony.  I have solar lights on the railing.  I put up my Christmas tree yesterday that has lights already on the tree and decorated the tree today.

UGP,as i am sure you know i was a Catholic 60 yrs ago.The Hail Mary prayer was just as popular as the Our Father.

My question to you,when you have mass or anything else rosaries etc.is the HM still used?

The bible does say there is only 1 mediator to God and of course that is Jesus.

Im also NOT sure you would be interested in this link RE this link cos i think you took a job for charity in Catholicism.It comes from the book of Acts.

Just not up to it this year. my son is dead; my step kids wany nothing to do with us; my father-in-law was just diagnosed with esophageal cancer; my sister, nephew, niece, nephew in law, 2 great nieces (one only 6 weeks old) all just got covid. our church kicked us out because we stood up against minister that lied about us and slandered us. Basically, we are tired of life.

sorry for the depressing answer  :-\
