The Epiphany celebrates the dawning of the Light of Christ upon all the world. Especially we remember the Magi, the gentile wise men who came to recognize and worship the Jewish Messiah. Come celebrate Christ for the world in this joyous yet meditative Evensong celebration of the Epiphany.
Evensong, or Sung Evening Prayer, is a tradition that emerged out of the English Reformation traditionally being held on Sundays and Major Feasts. Our order of service is from the American Book of Common Prayer of 1979. Its principal parts are the Invitatory and Psalter, The Lessons, and The Prayers, reflecting the ancient divisions of the older Offices, now merged into one. Evensong is participatory by nature and you bless others simply by your presence. All are welcome.
Incense will be present at this service.
