Epiphany: Gifts of the Little Magi
Come join us on Sunday, January 5, 2025 to celebrate the Feast of Epiphany (aka Three Kings) with a procession of “Gifts of the Little Magi”.
We encourage the young children to bring a birthday gift baby Jesus and present this at the Creche during the Offertory.
This is a wonderful opportunity to remind children that while Christmas is Jesus’ birthday, He so generously loves every child so much that everyone gets gifts on His birthday! And that if they wish to present a gift to the birthday celebrant Himself, they can wrap some baby clothing, blankets, diapers, wipes or other newborn items and give homage to Jesus like the Magi on Epiphany.
The gifts collected will be forwarded to BirthRight Vancouver in support of their ministry to women and their infants.
