The feast of Epiphany (“manifestation”) concludes the Christmas season with a celebration of God’s glory revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. Like the light of the star that guided the magi to Jesus, the light of Christ reveals who we are: children of God who are claimed and washed in the waters of baptism. We are sent out to be beacons of the light of Christ, sharing the good news of God’s love to all people.

Attached is a Blessing for a Home at Epiphany that you may use with family or friends as a blessing!

Happy New Year, Church!

Let us pray,
Eternal God, you have placed us in a world of space and time, and through the events of our lives you bless us with your love. Thank you for your abundant love and forgiveness. Grant that in the new year we may know and trust your presence, witness your love at work, and live in the light of the event that gives us joy forever—the coming of your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
