Sunday, January 7, 2024: Sunday of the Epiphany of Our Lord at 10:00 AM

The feast of Epiphany (“manifestation”), traditionally on January 6, concludes the twelve-day Christmas season. It is a celebration of God’s glory revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. Like the light of the star that guided the magi to Jesus, the light of Christ reveals who we are: children of God who are claimed in love and called to witness to that love, invited to be beacons of God’s light. Come celebrate the Epiphany on Sunday, January 7 at 10:00 AM. Join together onsite and online. We will offer a blessing of the sanctuary and provide a liturgy for you to offer a blessing of your home. This year we will not travel to offer house blessings
