Each year, in this
season, this moment,
with the holy couple, with the seekers,
we join with all other pilgrims,
the Magi, following His star
seeking the Christ-child…
Rekindling memory,
connection,
our journey to the manger, epiphany,
the coming of Christ, to His holy birth,
in awe and wonder, bringing our gifts,
praying for His return, as promised by God…
