- **Event Name**: Blessing of the Water: Icon Procession and Cross Dive
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 11 Jan, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Sun, 11 Jan, 2026 at 02:30 pm
- **Event Description**: St. George's Orthodox Church invites you to join us for the celebration of the Great Feast of Theophany. Festivities will begin with Divine Liturgy (10:00 am) followed by a communal meal. Around 1:00 pm, there will be an icon procession from our historic building at 212 E. Church St. to the eastern shore of Edenton Bay, where Fr. Andrew Davis will conduct the blessing of the waters.

Why do we do this? To commemorate Christ's Baptism, which is wholly different than our own, and celebrate God's promise to renew the entire cosmos. As St. Ambrose said, "Our Lord was baptized because He wished, not to be cleansed, but to cleanse the waters.”
