Parishioners of Salt Lake City’s Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral on Saturday celebrated Epiphany, also known as Theophany, with the annual “Blessing of the Waters” rite. Theophany, part of the Epiphany season, specifically commemorates Christ’s baptism in the River Jordan by John the Baptist.
