Happy Three Kings (Epiphany Sunday)

Today January 04, 2026 is Epiphany Sunday. Epiphany Sunday celebrates the revelation of Jesus Christ as the Son of God to the whole world. It is marked by the visitation of the three kings or Magi bringing gifts of gold, frankincese, and myrrh. These gifts represents Jesus Christ's kingship, divinity, and sacrifice respectively. In the Philippines especially in provinces, it celebrates Epiphany as three men dressed as King's riding in horses giving candies and cookies while roaming around the streets. The Catholic Church in the Philippines performed special masses commemorating the revelation of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles via the Three Kings (Magi).
