What: Memorial Day Liturgy
When: Monday, May 31, at 10:00 AM
Where: Epiphany Worship Center (Reception to follow in the Community Center)

On Memorial Day, Monday, May 31, at 10:00 AM , we will remember those who died serving our country. In the Gathering Area you will find a poster listing the names of deceased veterans given to us by loved ones at Epiphany. Please fill out the form on the other poster if you would like to have a name added to the list.

We invite you to bring an item of remembrance of your loved one to display during the liturgy (these can be photos, documents, items of clothing, etc. that represent the loved one remembered).  Following the liturgy, there will be a reception in the Community Center. Join us in honoring those who have served us so generously, and come to pray that peace will bring an end to all violence.

An invitation for a grassroots review of the new Roman Missal

A new edition (the third in English) of the “Roman Missal,” which includes all the texts prayed during Eucharistic liturgy, is about to be approved in translation for all English-speaking countries. This new translation is a much more literal translation from the Latin text, following recent directives for translations from the Vatican. However, the result is a less than satisfactory American English version than what we have been using in the First and Second English editions. The Worship Committee, our pastor, Fr. Jeff, and the Parish Pastoral Council, are very concerned about the proposed new translations. We invite you to look over the examples posted on the website of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, which you can access by clicking here.
