Polish Catholics hold annual three kings procession
Members of St. Ferdinand and St. Ladislaus parishes processed down Belmont Avenue in Chicago during a three kings parade on Jan. 7, 2023. The annual event celebrates Epiphany when the three wise men visited the baby Jesus. The event started with a Mass at St. Ferdinand with Bishop Kevin Birmingham and ended with a Mass and blessing at St. Ladislaus. (Karen Callaway/Chicago Catholic)
