As a way to remember and mark the Epiphany in your hearts and homes this year, consider participating in the ancient tradition of chalking the door. It’s a way of marking the new year and the celebration of the return of the light by using a set of numbers and letters to mark the threshold to your home to invite God’s blessings on all who enter this year. Learn more at the link and if you participate, send us a photo of your door to share! https://www.gracechurchgainesville.org/epiphany-blessings-/
