The Epiphany is one of the oldest feasts of the Greek Orthodox Church, established in the 2nd century AD and referring to the manifestation of the Holy Trinity during the baptism of Jesus Christ in the Jordan River by Saint John the Baptist. It is celebrated every year on January 6 and is the third and last feast of the Twelve Days, which begins with Christmas. It is also called Epiphany and Lights.
