Today is the Sunday after Theophany. Jesus' Baptism reestablishes order by removing the chaos in the world and reorienting life. Fr. Micah shares a message with the youth regarding the importance of Holy Water in our lives. Holy Water Blessed at the feast of Theophany may be used by Orthodox Christians to overcome daily chaos giving us proper direction.
