The Feast of the Epiphany commemorates the arrival of the Magi, who followed a star to witness the revealing of Christ.
Join our community in participating in a centuries-old tradition: Chalking the Door!
A couple of volunteers will come to your home and mark the lintel (door frame) with:
20 + C + M + B + 26
This sacred sign serves two purposes:
C+M+B stands for Christus Mansionem Benedicat, meaning “May Christ bless this house.”
The letters also honor the traditional names of the Magi: Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar.
This beautiful act sets your home apart as a place of Christian hospitality, peace, and blessing for the year ahead.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE HOME! We will simply use blessed chalk to mark your door frame and leave a blessing prayer card.
