Home Blessing 2025

It is an ancient Catholic custom to bless homes on or around the Feast of the Epiphany with special prayers that recall the journey of the wise men to the infant Christ. Homes are sacred places of rest, of refreshment, of refuge from the cares of the world. In our homes, we exchange love with family members, offer care to the helpless, the ill, the young. We extend the great Christian virtue of hospitality by inviting others into our sacred space.

Note that the earliest shrines - holy places - were in homes; it was only later in Christian history that we designated churches and other special buildings a the ‘officially’ holy spaces.
