Theophany

Blessed feast of our Lord's Theophany!

When Thou was baptized in the Jordan, O Lord, the worship of the Trinity was made manifest, for the voice of the Father bear witness to Thee, calling Thee His Beloved Son, and the Spirit in the form of a dove confirmed the certainty of the Word. O Christ Our God who has appeared and has enlightened in the world, O Lord, glory be to Thee.
We found a patch of ice and the boys each got a stick and found something to be their puck to play hockey.
Our cats are great climbers!  And the pine tree grove in the back has 23 trees, so we were able to select 2 trees that we thought were just right for hanging a new hammock.  It was a Christmas gift!
We read the life of St. Seraphim and asked him to be an intercessor to God for us.
Here's the ornament my niece made for us.  Isn't it great?
A few more photos from our trip to Ohio.

I love pictures of the inside of Orthodox churches. And the outside of this one. It's beautiful. The cow ornament is great. Such detail!
