Felix Nova Anum: Happy New Years
Address by Marc Aupiais
To our wonderful, loyal viewers: It pleases me no end to wish you a wonderful new year. The Catholic New Year started a few weeks ago, but the changing of anums is a time to be celebrated. Spend it with family, the most basic building block of society.
As for resolutions, the only way to achieve them is not to wait for a new year but do so immediately in your heart and for your heart, not an occasion, or you shan’t achieve a single thing out of them!

Christmas isn't all about family
(Tridentine and Faith; SACNS Africa)
Article by Marc Aupiais
But I assure you, today is. Remember you still have to attend church today: Holy Family Sunday. The day we celebrate our families by loving and caring for them and Jesus' Family all the same.
Christmas is about sharing Christ. Today is about sharing family- his family first, then our own!

Christmas Eve: the Vigil Mass and Christmas itself
Article by Marc Aupiais
A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you!
For those seeking to obey the church canon law and attend mass
Christmas Eve: the Vigil Mass and Christmas itself
http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=180723778622365
Christmas is quite a day usually, which is why we give this friendly reminder. It is acceptable to attend a vigil mass on the eve of Christmas, during the afternoon. I am personally going to a church at 5 or 6 pm tonight. That way you do mass and get a whole lot of time on Christmas for family!
Also remember SABC 3 is airing the pope's midnight mass from 11 PM to 1 AM tonight. This is an initiative of the SACBC to help those too ill or far from a parish to attend, however I like to watch it in addition to mass, especially as it does not fulfill the obligation should one only watch it and not be for grave reason such as distance or illness unable to attend mass. Yet, for me it is quite the spectacle and well worth the watch be it live or recorded.
You can also attend your local midnight mass whenever it is. Or attend with the crowds tomorrow morning!
Christmas is a day of Holy Obligation for Roman Catholics.
