Wasn't aware new year's was a pagan holy day? It's a secular holiday. Every culture with a calendar had a new year's day.
We don't pay any attention to it except to keep up with the civil calendar.
Churches that do communion only on new year's eve ... well, they have their own religion it seems. The Lord's Supper ought to be often, but if you're gonna only do it annually seems like Passover would be the preferred time. New year's has no connection with the bible whatsoever.
But I have given up trying to understand "why" so many churches do what they do...
