Third Sunday after Epiphany

Hey Everyone!

I hope you’re all safe and sound in your respective locations around our country. It seems like everyone is getting snow except those of us here in Lake City. That said, it did start snowing a little this afternoon.

Most of the Christmas decorations in the church have been taken down and stored away until next year. We decided to leave the garland on the fence, just for good measure. 🙂 Thanks to Ron and Diane Bruce for the help.

This Sunday is the third Sunday after Epiphany and my preaching text is Luke 4:14-21. You can find it and the other lectionary texts here. The sanctuary will be open for live worship, or you can join us online via Zoom (the link is below).

Epiphany Sunday

Hey CPC,

I hope all is well in your neck of the woods. It appears as though everyone in the country is getting snow except Lake City. 🙁 Nonetheless, it’s still beautiful here, despite the drippy weather. I’d like to extend a special thanks to those who’ve sent or dropped off tea during our 12 Days Tea Drive. If you’ve forgotten or still got a box of tea to send, it’s not too late.

As many of you know, we had to make the last minute decision to cancel our 12th Night Potluck due to recent COVID exposures in town. For those who made food for the potluck and don’t know what to do with it, feel free to bring it to our fellowship time on Sunday after the service.

Don’t forget that this week is also Communion Sunday. If you’re joining us online, please bring your communion elements to the broadcast. The preaching text this week is the story of the Magi from Matthew 2:1-12. You can read it and the other Epiphany lectionary texts here.

Our weekly gatherings are starting back this week. You can join us for games on Monday and the Bible study on Wednesday night. The Men’s Prayer Breakfast is also resuming this week. Here are your announcements for this week!
