DisciplesNet Worship #661: Epiphany – (Shaw 1.8.2023)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

This week's message looks at the visitation of the Magi to Jesus and his family, often called the Epiphany. Pastor Bob speaks on this in his message, based on Matthew 2:1-12 and Isaiah 60:1-12, titled, "Arise and Shine."
This worship service is just over 30 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a few favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

We hope that as you join us for worship you will feel a blessing from being part. Please tell friends, family, and others you know about our online church that is here with doors that are always open, walls as wide as the world, and always room at the table.

Janet Spaulding teaches us from Matthew 25:31-40, reminding us that whatever we offer to the stranger, or those in need, we offer to Jesus himself. There are many ways we can welcome and meet the needs of those around us. Janet helps us to understand how important that hospitality is.

You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me."
