About the Event

The Magi were seekers. They sought wisdom, they sought the divine, they sought

fortunes to tell the future. Their seeking leads them to Jesus, the newborn king of

another culture and religion. And yet, their seeking is also what protects them from

Herod’s deception and harm. After the Magi go home by another way, Joseph is

visited again by an angel in his dream. This time, the angel brings a warning, and like

before, Joseph heeds the message. Fleeing from Herod’s massacre, Joseph and Mary

seek refuge in Egypt; they remain there, living as immigrants, until Herod dies. Like

the Magi, may we seek the divine and be willing to journey closer to God. Like the

Holy family, may we seek safety for all families who are under threat. This new year

and every year to come, let us keep seeking—wisdom, justice, and a better world.
