You may or may not know the story of your birth. If you do, there is something special about hearing your origin story again and remembering how it all began for you.
That’s why we observe Advent: to celebrate how it all began for us.
In The Christmas Letters, Magrey deVega invites you to hear about the miracle of Christ’s birth from those who first told the story.
The letters in the New Testament, known as the Epistles, contain the first attempts by the church to understand and celebrate the mystery of the Incarnation. They point us to the origins of what we believe about Jesus, fully human and fully divine.
By spending time with these holy, ancient words this Advent, you’ll come to know the meaning of Christ’s coming like never before.
Join us as we journey through Advent along with the letters of Romans, 1 John, Philippians, and Colossians.

Thank you to those who pledged for 2024 and to those who faithfully give to Epiphany, pledge or no pledge. It is because of you that Epiphany exists and supports a worshipping community doing God’s work in the world.
Generosity is a journey, it’s a practice that we learn and nurture within our hearts. It just isn’t in our nature to give away what we have worked hard to acquire or to donate our precious time without compensation. It takes something as radical as Love to inspire us to share our time, talent, and treasure with others. This is a journey we make together, a Walk in Love.
As we have lived with the Gospel of St. Mark this year we have been brought into a world turned radically upside down. The laws and customs that had been in place for centuries were challenged, power and dominion have been questioned, and a culture hemmed in from all sides by oppression and subjection desperately seeks a way forward.
As it turns out, it is not clever politics or force that cause the change in society, but the simplest concept of Love. Jesus causes a revolution of thought and heart by daring to reach out to the outcast and teach others to do the same. He walks in love with the marginalized, with the poor, with the sick, and brings us along with him on his journey.
The most miraculous gift of Love is that it was there within us all along, all we had to do was find it, tap into it, and begin growing it. And look what has happened at Epiphany since you have been here! We have learned to share, to give, to volunteer, to accompany others, to feed, to pray, to visit, to strive for change.
This is our Walk in Love.
Please Pray. Please Pledge. Please Give.
Please support our Walk in Love
Thank you.
In Christ,
Your Vestry
