Happy New Year!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

We already did that.

Are you like Frosty the Snowman?

It's like, happy birthday!

No matter what day of the year it is.

No, it's a new year, though.

It's another new year, Father Harrison.

Why is it another new year?

It's a year of St. Joseph.

Like, doesn't the phrase New Year loses its meaning when you use it for everything no i think there's multiple overlapping years going on at one point in time okay so it's like

it's a layer cake of years okay so what i'm hearing is is that it's the year of the italians

it's most certainly the year of Italians.

You know, funny is, I'm not sure how many people know this.

I've got to do a better job about preaching about it.

But yeah, the Holy Father is like this year, year of St. Joseph.

It's the 150th anniversary of St. Joseph being declared the patron of the church, right?

I think that's why he did it.

Something like that.

I couldn't remember what it was.

Yeah, I think that's the reason.

So, just get your St. Joseph devotions going and getting up and start praying some litanys and stuff.
