This Sunday: Epiphany Blessing of the Doors

This Sunday, Trinity for the first time will partake in the Epiphany tradition of blessing the church doors. We will use chalk to inscribe the pattern "20 † C † M † B † 24" on the lintels of our doors to represent the hospitality of the Holy Family to the Magi. The letters C, M, and B could refer either to the traditional names of the Three Kings (Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar) or the Latin blessing Christus mansionem benedicat ("May Christ bless this house").

Join us at 9:30 a.m. in the Undercroft to witness and learn more about this tradition! Rev. Luk will impart a special blessing as we chalk each of our doors. Later, children will disperse into age-appropriate groups for activities. Then take home some chalk and bless the doors of your own home! Parishioners of all ages are welcome to join.
