WORSHIP SCHEDULE
Sunday Mornings at 10:30am
(The livestream of our services can be found on our Facebook Page)
Gather for an opportunity to be in community, to pray and sing, to reflect on God’s Word and eat at the Lord’s Table each Sunday morning.
Sunday, September 20 – “Talk Like a Pirate” Sunday and Blessing of the Backpacks!
Scripture has been translated in over 1,000 different languages and continues to be shared in a multitude of dialects and accents. Join us on Sunday to hear the Good News in a light-hearted twist, like a “pirate!” Put on your linen shirts and sailor slops for a joyful morning. We will also be blessing backpacks as our youth begin the new school year.
Sunday, September 27 – “Jesus Was a Migrant” Film/Discussion
We will enjoy worship and fellowship at Epiphany before heading down to St. Stephen Lutheran Church (11612 New Hampshire Ave.) for a 12:30pm viewing of the documentary “Jesus Was a Migrant,” followed by a Q&A with the film’s director.
THIRD WEDNESDAY PRAYER GATHERINGS
We invite you to take a moment to pause and engage in a time of intentional prayer with others at 7:00pm on the 3rd Wednesday of the month. You can join in-person around our sanctuary font or gather online through our Facebook Page. If you are joining from home, consider lighting a candle and setting out a bowl of water as a reminder of the promises held in the baptismal waters. You can use the service outline below to follow along with the prayers and, if you would like, leave prayers in the comments during our time together. Whether they are named aloud or not, know that they are heard.
Mark your calendars for upcoming Third Wednesday Prayer Gatherings:

We fully welcome you into the life of this community, embracing people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions. We commit ourselves to undertaking the work of racial equity and social and economic justice.
Wherever you are in your faith journey, we invite you into the life of this community regardless of race, culture, addictions, physical or mental health, imprisonment, socio-economic circumstances, or anything that too often divides us. Everyone who gathers here is expected and encouraged to share in the sacramental and general life of this congregation. We invite you to join us as we joyfully and inclusively love and serve God and our community, as we are all one in Christ Jesus.
Welcome to The Table
Lutherans believe that Christ is truly present in the bread and wine of the Sacrament of Holy Communion. The Lord’s Table is set for all who need grace, forgiveness, strength, and wisdom for ministry and mission in the world. Whatever your church background or tradition, all who hunger to know the love of God, please know that you are invited and welcome to commune here.
If you wish to receive only a blessing, please join us at the altar and cross your hands over your chest. Grape juice and gluten-free bread is available.

BREATH OF GOD LENTEN SERIES
Breathe in. Breathe out.
It is a simple yet sacred act of living. With each inhale and exhale we reconnect with the Divine. Using a variety of prayer practices, we were invited into a daily connection with God during our 2020 season of Lent.
We leave these here as a gift and invite you to return to these practices in those moments when we need that reminder to breathe. Maybe you are discovering these for the first time. This is an invitation to create some space and play with God while we continue to understand our current reality of life.
BREATH OF GOD GUIDE AND WEEKLY DEVOTIONALS
“Living Breath of God” is an arrangement by Fendrick & Peck, of the classic hymn “O Living Breath of God.” May this song invite you into the season of Lent and prepare you to breathe deeply the Divine who dwells with us.
