The Annual Meeting: Please Join Us

We know that all things work together for good
for those who love God,
who are called according to his purpose. 

Romans 8:28

Dear Friends in Christ,

Please mark your calendars and plan to attend our Parish of the Epiphany Annual Meeting on Sunday January 31st at 11:30am. The meeting is online via Zoom this year, since we are still unable to gather in person.

You’ll be able to dial in by telephone if you don’t have access to a video enabled phone, tablet, or computer, or if are just generally uncomfortable using Zoom. Details on how to join the meeting will be available soon.

Here’s where you can participate and help bring some variety to our meeting:  Read more

Thank You

Dear friends at Epiphany,

I was so touched by the farewell celebration you offered on January 3rd. Many thanks to Dave and Suzanne for organizing it – they made a virtual Hadley Hall, and it was great to see so many of you. The Three Crowns mosaic you gave me is beautiful (thank you, Suzanne!) and I’m grateful for the generous purse that was collected. And of course, the celebration would not have been complete without the Warden Tabernacle Choir’s memorable rendition of “We Three Kings”! Thank you as well for your lovely cards and notes; it’s meant a lot to read them. It’s been a blessing and a privilege to have served with you in this interim time, and I will miss you. You will be a blessing to Nick as together you begin a new season of ministry.

Gratefully and with love,
Sarah

Welcoming the Myers Family

Anything your children want to say about themselves, Winchester, Epiphany, school, pets, or anything else would be wonderful!  As a reminder, Reverend Nick's first Sunday with us is 17 January.
