2012 House Blessings - 01/22/12

      The central sign of God's sanctification of all things through the feast of Theophany is the act of blessing the homes of faithful Christians. Father Gregory visits all members of the Church to pray with them in the place where they live, and to bless their surroundings with Holy Water. He asks God to have mercy on the house, to rid it of every evil and to fill it with every blessing. The blessing of homes is a custom of special beauty and significance.
     We ask Christ to bless and enter into our homes and our lives. We ask Him to be with us, as we desire to be with Him. We ask that by the sprinkling of blessed water, the Holy Spirit renew us, our families and our lives in our homes.
With Love In Christ,
Father Gregory
