SUMMARY:Epiphany
DESCRIPTION:Epiphany\, commonly known as Three Kings’ Day in the United States\, is on January 6. It celebrates the three wise men’s visit to baby Jesus and also remembers his baptism\, according to the Christian Bible’s events. The United States (US) Virgin Islands observe the day as a public holiday. \nIs Epiphany a Public Holiday?\nEpiphany is not a public holiday. Businesses have normal opening hours. \nWhat Do People Do?\nPeople from the US Virgin Islands celebrate Three Kings’ Day to emphasize and maintain their heritage and culture\, especially on the island of St Croix where the day features parades\, bands\, food\, music\, and other types of entertainment. Although it is not a public holiday in other parts of the United States\, many Christians take part in Epiphany activities such as: \n\nStar processionals on the Sunday closest to January 6 for church services\nParties or get-togethers to clean up homes after the festive season and put away Christmas decorations.\nTreasure hunts to find a figure of the Christ child.\nEpiphany luncheons\, parties and celebrations among churchgoers.\nAnd Sunday school activities for children that focus on Epiphany\, such as creating the star that led the wise men to Bethlehem.\n\nEpiphany marks the beginning of the Mardi Gras season in Louisiana. It is customary to bake king cakes during this time of the year. These cakes may include a small trinket (such as a baby doll) inside. The person who gets the piece of cake with the trinket receives various privileges or obligations. For example\, they may be requested to provide the next king cake. The interval between Epiphany and Mardi Gras is sometimes known as “king cake season”. \nPublic Life\nEpiphany is a public holiday in the US Virgin Islands so shops\, government offices and businesses are closed. Some businesses may close early the day before the holiday. It is not a federal public holiday in the rest of the United States. \nBackground\nEpiphany is one of the oldest Christian feasts. It was celebrated since the end of the second century\, before the Christmas holiday was established. It is commonly known as Twelfth Night\, Twelfth Day\, or the Feast of Epiphany. It means “manifestation” or “showing forth”. It is also called Theophany (“manifestation of God”)\, especially by Eastern Christians. Epiphany also refers to the church season that follows the day. \nIt commemorates the first two occasions on which Jesus’ divinity\, according to Christian belief\, was manifested: when the three kings visited infant Jesus in Bethlehem\, and when John the Baptist baptized him in the River Jordan. The Roman Catholic and Protestant churches emphasize the visit of the Magi when they celebrate the Epiphany. The Eastern Orthodox churches focus on Jesus’ baptism. \nSymbols\nVarious paintings\, artworks and sketches show the three wise men and Jesus. Some paintings artworks show the three wise men on the way to Bethlehem or adoring baby Jesus. The kings are important because their visit illustrates that Jesus was the king of all kings who came for the Jews and the Gentiles. \nThe star that guides the wise men to Christ also symbolizes Epiphany\, as well as the three gifts they gave to Jesus: gold (fit for a king); frankincense (used to worship at a temple); and myrrh (used for embalming\, as well as a salve for irritations such as diaper rash). Other paintings depict the story of Jesus’ baptism. Many Orthodox churches consider Jesus’ baptism to be the first step towards the crucifixion. The liturgical color for the Epiphany season is white.
