Father Duncan writes ...

The Feast of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple on 2nd February
brings us to the end of the forty day cycle of celebrations in our
Church’s calendar dealing with the first principal pillar of our Faith,
the Incarnation of God in Jesus...
Very shortly after the Christmas cycle is completed we turn our attention
towards the other pillar of Christian Faith, the Suffering, Death and
Resurrection of Christ. ...

Why does the Church observe these cycles of celebrations? Year by year
it is to hold before Christians and display to the world the Christian faith
rooted in the life of Jesus.
