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.

Walk In Love

Pledge for 2025

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

The Mission Strategy

The mission strategy of the Diocese of North Carolina is a grassroots, organic plan that invites every member of the Diocese to be a part of it.

The mission strategy is not a starting point; rather, it is built upon the work done throughout the diocese over the course of years. It is not a first step; it is our next step on our collective journey to Becoming Beloved Community.

To find out more about the mission strategy, visit the mission strategy page on the diocesan website .



Afghan Refugees - How to Help

Potentially hundreds of Afghan refugees will be resettling in the Triad in the coming days or weeks.

CWS-Greensboro (Church World Services) is a leader in the resettlement effort.

Visit the CWS website for more information on how you can help.

Episcopal Migration Ministries(EMM) is also helping nationally. Visit the EMM site for more information.



Keep up with the diocese

Sometimes it is easy for us to forget that Church of the Epiphany is part of the Diocese of North Carolina.

Our diocese is very active providing resources, information and opportunities for Epiphany and each of us as individuals. As does the national Episcopal church.

Please take a few minutes to visit the Diocese of North Carolina web site at https://www.episdionc.org/ and poke around a bit.

Pro tip: Cruise over to the Publications page and make sure you are on the list to get "The Disciple" magazine and the "Please Note" weekly email.
