Jan 06
Perhaps the second most important feast in the liturgical cycle (Pascha being the first) today we celebrate the manifestation of the Trinity, and the philanthropy of God.
“When you enlightened all things at the time of your manifestation, . . . the Jordan reversed its course, flowing uphill and carrying us to heaven.”
Today is also the annual great blessing of water – and the blessing of homes for the coming year. Whereupon much partying ensues.
