Day 285: Story of Hanukkah (2025)

In today's reading from 1 Maccabees, we hear about the victory of
Judas Maccabeus, which is also the story of Hanukkah. In Sirach,
Fr. Mike points out that chasing fame and glory in this world are
not worth our time, because they will all fade away after we are
gone. The readings are 1 Maccabees 4, Sirach 10-12, and Proverbs
22:9-12. For the complete reading plan, visit
