Epiphany is a Greek word akin to “manifestation” in English. The Feast of the Epiphany celebrates a formal announcement in the revelation that Jesus Christ appears among us as both God and man, and He is the Son of God.
Martin Luther holds that, of the festivals celebrated in the Lutheran Liturgical Calendar, Christmas is considered to be twelve days in length from December 25 until January 5, culminating in the Feast of the Epiphany.
In the Church of England the Epiphany is celebrated as the “Twelfth Night.” This history brings us to …
The Twelve Days of Christmas Song,
first published in 1780, may be both English and French in origin. It certainly does illustrate and enumerate a lavish gift giving practice associated with the Christmas holiday.
On the twelfth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
12 Drummers Drumming
11 Pipers Piping
10 Lords a Leaping
9 Ladies Dancing
8 Maids a Milking
7 Swans a Swimming
6 Geese a Laying
5 Golden Rings
4 Calling Birds
3 French Hens
2 Turtle Doves
and a Partridge in a Pear Tree.

Community Christmas Food Drive
Teacher, Life brings so much more satisfaction in giving to others.
Yes, there is an abundance of blessing that rains down upon us when we share in Jesus with the community. The letting go of that Christian love that lives within us warms the hearts of those around us. Living by example is far more effective in Missional outreach. Those people we want to engage feel moved to join in and contribute their energy and find satisfaction in community support. What a great time to share in and enjoy the gifts of the Holy Spirit!
17 But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him? 18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. 1 John 3:17-18.
Please join in by contributing your energy and resources to a Community Food Drive so that those in need may experience satisfaction.
You may contact us at any time when you feel the Spirit move you.
Peace and Joy!
