It was great for us to start 2026 with a Mass for the Epiphany. At the Mass the word Epiphany was discussed in terms of its link to the coming of Christ.
Epiphaneia is made up of: phaneia – manifestation (of truth; good; beauty) and Epi - intense / super i.e. you could argue an intense/super manifestation of beauty, goodness and truth altogether i.e. CHRIST.
The word 'gift' was also discussed and students were asked to think about the gifts they have received and how best to be thankful for them. An analogy would be like receiving a book as a gift from someone, and the best way to say thanks and be grateful for it, is to actually read the book i.e. use your gifts as a way of saying thankyou. God Bless for the New Year
