    Thank You for saying yes to God and bringing Jesus to the world! "All generations shall call me blessed!" (Luke 1:48).

    well we celebrate the feast of saint john 2 times a year, and if you really push it, you can say 3. the first one is the first Sunday of the coptic new year, when we read all the readings about saint john. The second one is the one that passed recently. The third one, which only a few people consider a feast for saint john is Epiphany. It really isn't a feast for Saint John because Epiphany is one of the Major Feasts of the Lord, but Saint John is remembered a lot because he's the one that baptized Our Saviour. And also, on the feasts of most other saints (Saint Thomas is an exception lol), they don't have a whole gospel reading for them. So he gets a lot more credit than other ones do. anyway, this isn't anything i read or any of that, just observations. anyway, ttyl and if any of this is wrong, i'd be pleased if somebody corrects me. thanks
