and Confirmation
Since the seventh century in the Western Church, the
magi have been identified as Caspar (or Gaspar), Mel-
chior, and Balthasar. A work called the Excerpta et
Collectanea attributed to St. Bede (d. 735) wrote,
“The magi were the ones who gave gifts to the
Lord. The first is said to have been Melchior, an old
man with white hair and a long beard… who offered
gold to the Lord as to a king. The second, Caspar by
name, young and beardless and ruddy complex-
ioned… honored Him as God by his gift of incense,
an oblation worthy of divinity. The third, black-
skinned and heavily bearded, named Balthasar… by
his gift of myrrh testified to the Son of Man who was
to die.” An excerpt from a Medieval saints calendar
printed in Cologne read, “Having undergone many
trials and fatigues for the Gospel, the three wise men
met at Sewa (Sebaste in Armenia) in AD 54 to cele-
brate the feast of Christmas. Thereupon, after the
celebration of Mass, they died: St. Melchior on Janu-
ary 1, aged 116; St. Balthasar on January 6th, aged
112; and St. Caspar on January 11th, aged 109.” The
Roman Martyrology also lists these dates as the
Magi’s respective feast days.
Emperor Zeno brought the relics of the magi from
Persia to Constantinople in 490. Relics (whether the
same or others) appeared in Milan much later and
were kept at the Basilica of St. Eustorgius. Emperor
Frederick Barbarossa of Germany, who plundered
Italy, took the relics to Cologne in 1162, where they
remain secure to this day in a beautiful reliquary
housed in the Cathedral.
He became what we are that he might
make us what he is. ~St. Athanasius

Planned Giving Brief: End of the Year Tax Planning Con-
gress enacted two tax provisions to encourage charitable do-
nations before the end of 2020. These include:
1. Increase in tax deduction for cash gifts: For donors that
itemize their tax return, before the new legislation, the annual
income limit was capped at 60% for cash gifts. The new leg-
islation allows for charitable donations up to 100% of a do-
nor's annual income.
2. New deduction: If you do not itemize when filing your
tax return, to reduce your tax liability, you will be allowed to
take a special tax deduction of up to $300 for charitable dona-
tions.
Visit the Archdiocesan planned giving website, Ca-
tholicPlannedGiving.com to learn more ways to maximize
your financial resources to benefit your family, charitable
giving, and make a grateful response to God for the abundant
gifts in your life. As always , contact an attorney or tax advi-
sor to learn what is best for your life.
