## Life

The father and mother of all the living, whose fall made the promise: the seed of the woman shall crush the serpent. The Church’s ancient calendars kept them on Christmas Eve — the old Adam remembered on the vigil of the New — and medieval mystery plays decked a ‘paradise tree’ with apples for their day: an ancestor of the Christmas tree itself.

## In the calendar

The upcoming dates, through December 31, 2028, when Bless’s Today screen shows Sts. Adam and Eve. Where the US calendar keeps another celebration that day, it is named instead and no rank is given.
