On Saturday, January 6, at 5 pm, the parish will celebrate the Feast of the Epiphany, which marks the end of the twelve days of Christmas. Epiphany is a Greek word meaning "manifestation" or "appearing." At the Eucharist of the Feast of the Epiphany, we celebrate Jesus being made manifest or appearing as Christ.
Traditionally, there are three manifestations celebrated on this feast day. The most widely celebrated manifestation of Christ on this feast day, and the one that has been historically celebrated by Christian churches in the West, is Jesus revealed as Christ to the three wise men, or Magi, from the East, who followed the Star of Bethlehem at Jesus' birth.
