For the visit, if it is possible, please prepare a cross and two candles. In the case of the sick and homebound, Holy Communion will be administered. In keeping with the tradition, the lintel of the door will be marked with the initials C+M+B+2010 (Caspar, Melchior, Balthazar-2010). These symbolize the Three Wise Men – Three Kings, who welcomed Jesus into their hearts, It is our way of accepting our Lord into our homes and our lives.
