When I was a young christian, the church I attended then would hold a prayer meeting
at midnight, and seek God's blessing upon the coming year. We would also remember
how He " crowned the year with His goodness." Sadly that era has passed and television
has supplanted that spiritual emphasis. Did not the Jews have a commemoration of the
event. As for my wife and I we will hold family worship as usual, but with the old and new
year to the fore in prayer, and retire early before the fireworks, hooters etc start. DV.
