Epiphany People

You hear each year that we are "Easter people". But we are also "Epiphany people". We mean well, but we are late, and bearing inappropriate gifts.

Today is Epiphany, known by our Spanish-speaking brothers and sisters as Three Kings Day. Christmas is a holy day, a church day. But Three Kings Day is when the wise men, or kings, arrived bearing gifts for Jesus. So, Three Kings Day is full of celebration and presents. So, if your Christmas lights are still up, turn them ON, in solidarity and celebration!
