HOMILY: FR. KURT

Mass at 17:00

Join us after Mass for an apéro reception and fellowship. We'd love to greet you in the New Year!

While we don't know the exact date when the Magi visited, scholars agree that it was likely within the first two years of Jesus' birth. 

Imagine the Epiphany. What do you see? What do the faces of Mary and Joseph look like when they see the three kings arrive bearing gifts? Surprise? Fright? Gratitude? 

In Catholic tradition, the gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh have different meanings that symbolize different events in Jesus' furture life.
