"On September 1st, the Church enters a new liturgical year. This is a practice that goes back to the early centuries of Christianity. It is the day we remember Christ preaching in Nazareth that Isaiah's prophecies of the messiah were true 'today'. It's also the day that the early church said the world was created. According to the old Byzantine calendar, we are now entering the year 7532 since the creation of the world".
Happy New Year!
