On the 8th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me... Everyone is familiar with this carol. And although by December 26th some people have already thrown their Christmas tree to the curb and taken down their Christmas decorations, there are the reminders that “Remember, Christmas is not just one day.”Catholics recognize that Christmas is not only on December 25. The secular carol reminds us there are twelve days of Christmas to January 6, the Epiphany. But the Church’s liturgy actually emphasizes the eight days or octave of Christmas. The Church recognizes that the days of the Christmas Octave are repeating the solemnness of Christmas for eight days, concluding on a high note with another solemnity that echoes the solemnity of the Nativity of the Lord.

O God, who by the fruitful virginity of the Blessed Virgin Mary has given humanity the reward of eternal salvation; grant, we implore you, that we may experience her intercession for us, through whom we have been made worthy to receive the author of life, Jesus Christ Thy Son our Lord, Who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns forever and ever. Amen.
