For this joint service Pastor Eric Black of Messiah will preach, Pastor Jason Peterson of St. Peter’s will preside, and the choirs of St. Peter’s and Messiah will offer joint anthems. Like our annual Ascension service, a meal will be held beforehand at 6:00 pm (Chili & soup will be provided; side dishes and desserts to share are welcome!) Epiphany is the season of the Church Year where the light of Christ is revealed to the nations; join us to begin it with God’s Word and the Lord’s Supper!
Light eradicates darkness, illuminates creation’s glory & strips away the shroud of mystery. Christ is the Light to which all kings & authorities bow down. He makes known the mysteries & salvation of God through the apostles & prophets. The Word & will of the Lord is no longer possessed by a singular people, nor is it cloaked in any kind of ambiguity. All are summoned & blessed to worship Christ. He is our exceeding joy in which our hearts thrilll & exult. (Isaiah 60:1-6; Ephesians 3:1-12; Matthew 2:1-12)
