Happy St. John the Baptist Day!

It's a Feast day!  The Feast of St. John the Baptist.  Got to attend Mass at West Bend with the bishop and some great friends.  I hadn't thought about this before:
The Feast of John the Baptist happens around the time when the days start to shorten.  The birth of Jesus happens when the days start to get longer.  Just like John said...  “[Christ] must increase. I must decrease” (John 3:30).

Isn't that cool?
