Midsummer’s eve is the feast of St John the Baptist. It was still celebrated in Finland with all night bonfires.

I plan on celebrating it with a bonfire and neighbors this year.

I’ve adopted the pre-reformation calendar by joining the Catholic Church.

wow! That's super interesting. How involved are you? Like, do you go to mass weekly? Do you find that you've gained a community via your fellow catholics?

Weekly mass. Great community. We're often invited to traditional feasts and celebrations. My parish celebrates an Anglican Rite mass. Very traditional and beautiful.
