📜🕯️ NEW SONG: “CANDLEMAS” — the day the Light walked into His own Temple.

So... here's a song I didn't know that I needed in my life...but I LOVE IT...

Presentation of the Lord (a.k.a. Candlemas) is the Church celebrating Jesus being brought to the Temple forty days after His birth—Mary and Joseph obeying the Law, the poor man’s offering (two doves), and Simeon finally getting to say: “My eyes have seen Your salvation.”

It’s a feast that hits like a theological mic-drop:
✅ Jesus is the “Light for the nations” — not as a metaphor, but as a Person.
✅ Israel’s promises aren’t scrapped — they’re fulfilled.
✅ And yes… historically, this was also the “okay, Christmas is REALLY over now” checkpoint.

So if your tree is still up and your lights are still on…
I’m not judging.
I’m just saying Candlemas is your gentle nudge to finally undecorate. 😂

🎶 “CANDLEMAS” — for Scripture nerds, liturgy lovers, converts, and anyone who wants to know *why this feast matters.*

Just a reminder: I’m not a musician—I’m a catechist trying my best to teach the faith with the tools at my disposal. I’ve been teaching the faith and apologetics and OCIA for 20+ years, so the words and heart/soul are mine, but I create the music digitally, and the art is AI-generated.
