The Orthodox Church celebrates Epiphany today, January 19. A solemn liturgy has been conducted in all acting churches across Georgia.

Catholicos-Patriarch of All Georgia, His Holiness and Beatitude Ilia II held a festive liturgy at Holy Trinity Cathedral in Tbilisi. After the liturgy, a water blessing ceremony was held in the yard of the Holy Trinity Cathedral.

Epiphany is one of the 12 main Christian feasts that celebrate the revelation of the Son of God as human–Jesus Christ. The occasion commemorated the baptism of Jesus Christ in the Jordan River by John the Baptist.
