Come to worship Jesus as Lord of all nations! St. Peter Worship at Key to Life Saturday, January 3rd
Welcome to St. Peter! • After Christmas, the celebration of the Epiphany of Our Lord is certainly the oldest of the festivals that highlight the life and ministry of Jesus. • While the origins of the traditional date of the festival, January 6, are somewhat obscure, the celebration has always focused on the ministry of Jesus. • In some parts of the Christian world the Savior’s baptism was the appointed focus; in other regions believers heard about his first miracle in Cana. • The tradition that has endured over the centuries is the remembrance of the Magi from the East. • In some places of the Christian world, January 6 is still referred to as “Christmas of the Gentiles.” • So we observe Epiphany early this weekend.
Welcome toSt. Peter! • There are friendship registers at the end of each row. • Please take a moment to give us your information so that we have a record of your time with us today. • Thank you!
