TODAY

Today,January 2, 2010, is

Epiphany Sunday, when we

celebrate the revelation of Jesus

to the world following his birth.

The coming of the Magi (wise

ones) to Bethlehem to worship

and bring gifts to the child Jesus

foreshadows his later role as

Savior of the World.

We are very pleased to have you

with us as we worship God

together today.
