The Feast Day of Epiphany is when many churches commemorate the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River by John the Baptist.

 

But some churches within the Roman Catholic Church celebrate this feast day on January 13th instead.


Celebrations of the baptism of Jesus draw hundreds of visitors to the Holy Land from around the world, many of whom hold baptism ceremonies at the Jordan River.
