Search for Spiritual Freedom

Welcome to Corpus Christi-Epiphany
Church as 2014 begins. We come to
worship the God of all time and
eternity who is also Lord of our individual lives.
GOD'S WORD TODAY
Today's celebration of the Epiphany of the Lord serves as a
reminder of the true meaning of the liturgy. The story of
the visit of the magi from the east has been depicted in
Christian art for centuries. We have invented names for
these three mysterious figures. We have ascribed race and
ethnic origin to each of them. Some traditions claim that
there were up to twelve magi. The only evidence we have
of these magi is from just one of the four Gospels, the account we hear from Matthew today. The Church's liturgy
asks us to look beyond the words and the traditions that
have grown up around this story. The liturgy is for today--it
is not a sentimental recalling of past events. At the heart of
this celebration is the fact that Jesus is manifested to all
people. This is what Epiphany celebrates. Today, the Lord
Jesus is manifested to you, to your worshipping community, indeed to the very ends of the earth. If the liturgy celebrates the now, how does this manifestation of the Lord
occur? We believe that Christ is made present in word and
sacrament, right here, right now. This is the miracle of
Epiphany that occurs each and every time we gather to give
praise to God. Looking past the folklore that has developed
about the Gospel story, you can focus instead on how the
Lord is manifested to you today. Take the Epiphany challenge and find ways that you can share Christ with others,
creating an endless circle of epiphanies.
