Star of Bethlehem


We hope you are all enjoying a merry Christmas. Given the Covid, we know how difficult it is to pretend this is an actual holiday – no loved ones – no family gatherings – at least we were able to schedule a Google Meet and everyone was in attendance – Nick and Val, Karen and Albert, Jerry and Brenda, Mike and Bonnie, Devin, Liz, Maia and Mani, Jon, Julie and Stella, and Brent. It was awesome. We even stepped outside to get a peak at the confluence of Jupiter and Saturn, which hasn’t happened in some 800 years.


On this holiday, there is scientific speculation that perhaps the wise men and those around the town of Bethlehem back in the time had actually seen this phenomenon and thought it’s unusually bright light was the star guiding them to the birth of Jesus. There are scientists that say that this confluence did not occur on 0 AD, or 0 BC, depending on how you look at it. Maybe it was just like they say it was.

We hope to be talking to you soon.
