Sunday, January 7 | First Sunday after Epiphany | Holy Communion
Sermon: Celebrate Epiphanies!
Scripture for Reflection: Ephesians 1: 17-19 3: 1-12 Matthew 2: 1-12
Epiphany is the day Christians remember the coming of the Magi to visit Jesus, bringing their gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. It occurs on Jan. 6 every year, the 13th day of the Christmas season. The word “epiphany,” from the Greek word epiphania, means appearance or manifestation.
