Blessing of Epiphany Water, Chalk, and Salt (Sunday, January 5th, 6:30 p.m., Presentation Church)

As we keep reviving the practice of blessing Epiphany water and chalk on the vigil of the traditional date of the Epiphany, Presentation-Sacred Heart Parish invites all Catholics of good will, whether they attend Mass in the Ordinary Form or the Extraordinary Form, to the rite to bless Epiphany water, chalk, and salt. The ceremony will start at 6:30 p.m. - this is NOT a Mass - at Presentation Church, 209 Hoyt Street, Port Ewen. Kindly being your bottles of clean water, boxes of salt, and pieces of chalk. Although there is no charge for the blessing of these items, your free will offering would be appreciated.
