THE EPIPHANY

The Epiphany celebrates Jesus revealed as Christ. January 6 is not only the Feast itself, but also the beginning of a season in which we come to know, one epiphany at a time, Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah, our Savior and Redeemer, very God of very God.

To more fully understand the season of Epiphany, consider reading these sermons:

The Epiphanies of Christ by Fr Mead (2006)
A Sermon for the Eighth Sunday after Pentecost by Fr Stafford (2006)
Traversing Afar by Fr Mead (2005)
The Kingdom of Truth by Fr Mead (2003)
Los Tres Reyes by Fr Mead (2002)
The Uniqueness of Christ by Fr Mead (2002)

At Saint Thomas, we also celebrate the visit of the wise men to the Christ child at an Epiphany Procession at 11am and 4pm on Sunday, January 15.

Collect:

O God, who by the leading of a star didst manifest thy only begotten Son to the peoples of the earth: Lead us, who know thee now by faith, to thy presence, where we may Behold thy glory face to face; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
