The feast of the Epiphany is much celebrated in some cultures and is always an integral part of our Christmas celebration at Holy Angels. Under Father Taylor the feast has taken on increased emphasis and is observed in a manner similar to Christmas Day. Significant as the commemoration of Christ's being revealed to the larger world (via the visiting Wise Men or Magi), our celbration incorporates symbols appropriate to the continuing Christmas season. Incense is used during the feast, the Christmas trees and nativity are prominent - now with the addition of the figurines of the Magi, spirited music from the choir, and of course the scriptural telling of the ongoing Christmas story. And although Easter is some months away, a symbolic resurrection of sorts took place with the reappearance of the beloved great organ to complement the other musical instruments. Truly a fitting last Sunday of the Christmas liturgies.
