Worship

We gather on the Fifth Sunday after Epiphany at 10am for worship

The fifth Sunday after Epiphany continues to highlight unlikely instruments and circumstances appointed to reveal God’s glory.  “Who will go for us?”  God asks.  A person of unclean lips, a former persecutor of the church of God, and three fishermen who couldn’t catch a thing .  More surprising still, perhaps, is that we are also called.

You can also participate in worship through the livestream and recording at www.ststephenslutheran.org.

There is usually a Children’s Church / Sunday School program planned during worship. Please contact Leslie Lapp 476-4700 for more info.

We gather on the Fourth Sunday after Epiphany SCOUT SUNDAY
at 10am for worship

The glory of God is often revealed when and where it is least expected.  God uses our lips to declare that glory, inexperience3d and hesitant though they may be.  God uses our love to demonstrate that glory and so urges us to exercise it.  God uses Jesus of Nazereth, water and the word, bread and wine, to reveal God’s glory where and when God chooses.  Take heed, lest the glory of God slip through our midst unnoticed.

We gather on the Third Sunday after Epiphany at 10am for worship

God’s glory is revealed in the reading of scripture. People stand at attention. People weep. People prostrate themselves in prayer. The unity of the church is another reflection of God’s glory. Most gloriously, the promises of God are fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ. Gather round. Listen up. Glimpse the glory of God.

We gather on the Second Sunday after Epiphany at 10am for worship

The Sundays after Epiphany continue to celebrate the revelation of God’s glory to us as it was made known to the magi and to those on Jordan’s banks at Jesus’ baptism – today using wedding imagery.  Our God rejoices over God’s people as those being married rejoice over one another.  By the power of the Spirit there are gifts galore for everyone.  In Christ Jesus the best wine is saved for last. Taste and see.

We gather on the Baptism of Our Lord at 10am for worship

Today’s festival rejoices in God’s blessings.  We recall and celebrate our adoption as god’s children, the gift of the Holy Spirit, and the promised company of almighty God when we  “pass through the waters . . . the rivers. . . fire.”  On this day the heavens open again for this assembly, and we receive the gift of God’s Beloved, Jesus, in bread and wine.
