DESCRIPTION:Holy Mass at 7:00 PM on 6th January\, Tuesday (No 9:00 AM Mass) \n\n\n\nIn Syro-Malabar Church\, Epiphany is known as Denha (meaning dawn\, manifestation\, or revelation)\, a season focusing on the revelation of Jesus as the Messiah and the manifestation of the Holy Trinity. It specifically commemorates the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan\, and often includes the adoration of the Magi and the miracle at Cana.Key Aspects of Denha (Epiphany) in the Syro-Malabar Church:Significance: Denha celebrates the beginning of Jesus’ public life and the manifestation of the Trinity.Season/Duration: It is not just one day\, but a season beginning on the Sunday closest to January 6\, unfolding through the testimony of saints\, including the “Rogation of the Ninevites\,” and concluding before the Great Fast (Lent).Cultural Symbolism: A key tradition is decorating the cores of banana plants (pindi) with lights\, often accompanied by singing “El-payya” (God is light)\, symbolizing Jesus as the Light of the World.Liturgical Focus: The season includes special Friday commemorations of saints\, starting with St. John the Baptist\, followed by Apostles\, Evangelists\, and other Church Fathers\, concluding with a commemoration of all the faithful departed.Theological Meaning: The liturgy highlights the baptism of Jesus as the moment the Holy Trinity was revealed to mankind. \n\n\n\nEpiphany is a day of obligation in the Syro-Malabar Church.
