The Mystery Of Epiphany And The Star Of Bethlehem

As the Church celebrates Epiphany, we reflect on the Magi's visit to the Christ child, guided by a star—a sign of God’s revelation to the nations.

JUST A QUICK WARNING: there's an account that is spoofing my name trying to get you to click on dodgy links. Please report or just ignore anything you get like this because I would not send you tinyurl links!

Just for fun 😉

I mean, that is pretty motivating 😅

I've started a new project which I think will either keep me very busy or drive me crazy (or both!). I don't know why I do these things to myself...

If you can't tell, it's a "family tree" of Apostolic Succession. If anyone has any good sources/lists of their church's lineage then please let me know so I can make this as accurate as possible! :)
