Epiphany
L'Arche celebrates the Christmas Season right through to Epiphany, when the entire community exchanges gifts in remembrance of the three wise men. After prayer, dinner and singing, each person sat in the 'stable' to receive his/her gift from their 'secret Santa'. We are big here, in affirmation, so the giver tells the receiver how he/she sees Jesus in them. I had drawn Larry's name. He lives in Sunflower House, and for a very large man, he is so very gentle (certainly God-like). I admire Larry for his curiosity. He is very tech savy on computer, and has an extensive selection of CD's and vinyl records, which he is always eager to share.
