On Sunday, Jan. 5, our parish celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany. The Three Kings made a visit and presented their gifts to the baby Jesus. Also making an appearance was La Befana. On Jan. 5, throughout Italy, excited children prepare for a late-night visit from La Befana by hanging up socks to be filled with small delights. Befana, a grandmotherly woman who resembles a kindly witch, brings gifts to good little children, depositing them in stockings hung above the hearth, then tidying up a bit before taking her leave.
