Because it is a penitential season, Christmas Eve Day has always been one of fasting. The fast is broken with Christmas Eve Communion during a candle lighting service. The rhythm seems strange, but Christian holidays always begin with the evening prior. So Christmas begins on Christmas Eve and All Saints begins on Halloween (All Saints Eve). This comes from the ancient Hebrew way of keeping time. The creation story in Genesis 1 lays out the pattern saying, \u201cIt was evening, it was morning; the first day.\u201d<\/p><p>The ancient custom for the last seven days of Advent was to sing and pray the O Antiphons. They are introductory prayers to the Magnificat (Mary\u2019s Prayer, From Luke 1) that call on Christ with different names. The names are: O Wisdom, O Lord, O Root of Jesse, O Key of David, O Dayspring (dawn), O King of Nations, and O Emmanuel (God with us). These prayers were eventually used to write the verses to the most famous Advent hymn: \u201cO Come, O Come Emmanuel.\u201d<\/p><p>For Christmas Eve, we recommend the coastal Italian tradition\u2014The Feast of Seven Fishes. This tradition embraces the fasting practice. It is not a feast proper, but it is still festive. While not originally tied to the seven O Antiphons, we find that the seven seafood dishes are a great way of sharing the meaning of the heart of Advent and the longing for Christ.<\/p><p>Our family loves singing, so we like singing each of the seven verses as each of the seven platters of seafood are presented. In order, to serve so many different kinds of seafood, it is important to make as many of them easy. Anchovies and sardines and other easy seafood may help. Here are seven of our recommendations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4d9ca34e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4d9ca34e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5a84d137\" data-id=\"5a84d137\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-387a80b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"387a80b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Feast of the Seven Fishes<\/strong><\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4cfcf352 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4cfcf352\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4bb43f9b\" data-id=\"4bb43f9b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a971586 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6a971586\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"590\" src=\"https:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/sevenfishes.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-8304\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/sevenfishes.jpg 750w, https:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/sevenfishes-300x236.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/sevenfishes-90x70.jpg 90w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5553123d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5553123d\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4eac28e\" data-id=\"4eac28e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3241f1f7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3241f1f7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Feast of the Seven Fishes, also known as Festa dei Sette Pesci in Italian, is a traditional Christmas Eve meal that originated in Southern Italy and is now celebrated by Italian-American families throughout the United States.
