We just learned about the 3 weeks of the Christmas season on the church calendar.
The third week of that season is known as Epiphany meaning Appearance, or Vision of God.
This is the week churches celebrate things like the wise men coming to visit Jesus in the manger.
Some people during this season make a cake called a king cake, which is a round cake that has a small doll of baby Jesus inside.
People each take a piece of cake, and whoever finds the small doll has to make the cake next year.
This was a way to remember the kings and wise men coming to find the baby Jesus.
