Revelations

Body
Christmas is over. We began preparing for it before Thanksgiving when the stores began displaying decorations and Christmas-themed gifts. Cards were sent; gifts given; and parties held. Christmas is probably the most celebrated holiday of the year in terms of time and money spent. But it wasn’t Christmas that the early church focused on, it was The Feast of the Epiphany celebrated on January 6. Epiphany, from the Greek, means “to reveal.” It is a celebration of the revelations of Christ to man which began with His birth. Epiphany originally celebrated four different events or revelations. With His birth, the angels bore witness while the shepherds, representing the people of Israel, bowed down before Him.

GARDENER’S MAILBAG Dear Neil: I have a large Boston fern that we’ve been growing in a hanging basket for 10 years or longer. I have a small greenhouse, but the plant almost fills it now and its basket is nearly rusted through.
