Epiphany (Jan 6)

Picture
Reverse Advent (Epiphany Mission Blessing)  As we struggle with how a little baby changed the world, the incarnation of Christmas and the manifestation of Jesus understood at Epiphany helps tie Jesus' age and life's work together.  In addition the connection with Jesus' family as refugees connects with the actions and thoughts of this project which are very timely for our world today.
