Second Sunday after Epiphany
Watchword for the week – Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same spirit; and there are varieties of services, but the same Lord. 1 Corinthians 12:4–5
Sunday, January 19 – Isaiah 62:1-5; Psalm 36:5-10; 1 Corinthians 12:1-11; John 2:1-11
Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. Isaiah 60:1
Our God is merciful and tender. He will cause the bright dawn of salvation to rise on us and to shine from heaven on all those who live in the dark shadow of death, to guide our steps into the path of peace. Luke 1:78-79 GNT
Guiding Star, you are the one Lord, forevermore. Your light has been made known to the world so that all may follow you. In this season of Epiphany, give us peace and rest so that we may share your love with the world. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
Belief of the Church
With the whole of Christendom, we share faith in God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe and confess that God has revealed Himself once and for all in His Son Jesus Christ; that our Lord has redeemed us with whole of mankind by His death and His resurrection; and that there is no salvation apart from Him. We believe that He is present with us in the Word and the Sacrament; that He directs and unites us through His Spirit and thus forms us into a Church. We hear Him summoning us to follow Him, and pray Him to use us in His Service. He joins us together mutually so that knowing ourselves to be members of His Body we become willing to serve each other.
