Epiphany Greetings!

May you and yours be much blessed during the ancient feast (January 4) and weekend of the Epiphany 2015 —

Epiphany Star

“We saw his star at its rising!” — “Then, he sent them to Bethlehem . . . having been warned in a dream.” According to the Gospel, the Magi received three signs to heed: (1) a star in the heavens, (2) the words of Herod, and (3) an ominous dream.

The Faith-Formation staff at OLFE invites you to reflect on the signs you have received from the Creator during the year past, and how you might hear and see God’s grace in your life throughout 2015.

Happy New Year!  Share the Good News with all you meet.
