In Memoriam

Altar Candles In Memory of: Alfred Rome

Donated by: Donald Barrilleaux and Family

The Epiphany of the Lord Ma hew 2:1-12 

Behold, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying, "Where is the newborn king of the Jews?”

The iden ty and origin of the “magi from the east” is s ll debated by historians, theologians, anthropologist, and archaeologist. Most people would say that “There were three wise men.” St. Ma hew does not say that there were three. Men around the world studied the culture, the wri ngs, the religions and the history of peoples oth-er than their own. They believed in signs that told of great events. When the magi observed signs they be-lieved told of a child descended from King David, born in Bethlehem, to be the Anointed One promised by God, they incurred the expense and endured the difficulty and perils of a long journey through hos le territory. They did not come to ask anything of the child. They brought gi s that signified His mission for all mankind and what He would suffer to fulfill that mission. Do we truly believe Jesus is the Anointed One? Do we act as if we believe? What are we willing to do, to give, to risk, to endure to act on that belief? Such are gi s we can offer to celebrate the Epiphany of Jesus.
