Epiphany Water Blessing 2024

On Friday, January 5th, the vigil of the Epiphany, we will have the traditional blessing of the Epiphany water. Mass will be at 4:00 pm at St. Agnes and there will be no 5:15pm Mass. The blessing of the Epiphany water will take place immediately at 5pm. 

If you would like to have water blessed, please bring it in large containers (as opposed to many small containers) to the back of the chapel by the tables which are near the entrance.

Gold, incense, myrrh, and chalk will be blessed before Mass on January 6th. 

Kits with Epiphany water, blessed incense, and blessed chalk will be available to use for the blessing of your home on January 6th; a donation of $5 is asked. The prayer of blessing to print here; just make sure to change the year to '2024.'    

Due to the fact that there is only one priest currently at Corpus Christi, it will not be possible to have Fr. van Zee impart blessings. The head of the house is encouraged to ask the blessing upon the house.
