Epiphany Family, we’re so grateful for the many ways you help make our Sunday worship vibrant, welcoming, and spirit-filled! To help us stay connected, confident, and consistent in our shared ministry, we’re offering essential refresher trainings this August for our Sunday service roles.

Whether you’re a longtime volunteer or new to the team, this is a great opportunity to learn, grow, and recommit to serving with joy!

Why attend?

These brief but important sessions help:

Whether you’re serving once a month or every week, your presence matters. Let’s continue to show up for one another and for the sacred work we do together on Sundays! Please plan to attend your training date—and thank you for saying “yes” to service!

Christmas Eve | Sunday, December 24

10:00 am – Morning Prayer

3:00 pm – Eucharist Service & Christmas Pageant

This year Christmas Eve is also the 4^th Sunday of Advent. We will have a special addition to the line up of that day. We will have Morning Prayer at 10:00 am with select music and led by lay leader, Jim Ervin. The church council and staff chose to have the Eucharist Service of the day at 3:00pm as we have done for the last several years on Christmas Eve. We will have a special Christmas Pageant during the service on Christmas Eve. We are so excited to be able to invite the entire congregation to participate. Don’t Panic! This doesn’t mean you’ll be dressed in a sheet with cotton stuck to it… unless of course you want to. The Pop Up Christmas Pageant is a chance for the congregation to read/respond to a Christmas story script. You can be involved as little or as much as you would like. We’re excited to offer these “parts” Mary, Joseph, Shepherds, Angels, Manger Animals (wild card!) Inn Keeper and the famous Donkey.

Sunday School returns during the service beginning September 17. We will have two block of Sunday School this program year. The first block is September – November on the following dates: September 17, 24 | October 1, 8, 15, 29 | November 5, 12. The second block will be January – March on the following dates: January 7, 14 | February 4, 11, 25 | March 3, 10, 17, 24.

We will gather again at the Green Mill restaurant just off Highway 55 and 494 to talk and eat (and maybe have a beer). The address is: 2705 Annapolis Lane North, Plymouth, MN 55441
