Camels? No. Willing and Expectant Spirits? You Bet.

In the gospel reading for Epiphany read in chapel yesterday, we heard the story of the magi who follow a Star westward to an unfamiliar land, bringing with them precious gifts for the Christ child.

We prepare to board our plane, and like the magi we also follow a star - our daystar, the sun - as it makes its trek westward toward a land that is unfamiliar to us. As our journey unfolds, where will we encounter the Christ child? In whom will we perceive the Light of Life? What gifts do we bring to honor him? May the Spirit grant us eyes to see, ears to hear, and hands to feel.

Three Wise People: Lorin, Becca, and Kaila “gaze expectantly” towards the Star before heading west... after an hour and a half delay.
