EPIPHANY’S MESSAGE OF INCLUSION

As we enter the month of January, we celebrate Epiphany, a significant event in the Christian calendar that commemorates the visit of the Magi to the Christ child. This momentous occasion, observed on January 6th, marks the revelation of Jesus to the Gentiles and highlights the universal nature of His mission. Epiphany is a powerful reminder that Jesus came for all people, regardless of their background or status. The Magi, who were outsiders, symbolize the inclusion of all nations in God’s plan of salvation. This message of inclusivity calls us to embrace and welcome everyone into our faith community, reflecting God’s love and grace.

As we celebrate Epiphany, let’s reflect on how we can live out its message in our daily lives. Here are a few ways to do so:

  • Seek Jesus: Make time for prayer, worship, and reading Scripture to deepen your relationship with Christ.

  • Embrace Diversity: Welcome and celebrate the diversity within our church and community, recognizing that we are all part of God’s family.

  • Share the Light: Be a source of encouragement and support to others, sharing the love and hope of Christ through your actions and words.

  • Offer Your Gifts: Use your talents and resources to serve others and glorify God, just as the Magi offered their gifts to Jesus.

May this Epiphany season inspire us to seek Jesus with renewed faith, embrace the inclusivity of His message, and shine His light brightly in our lives.
