New Year and Epiphany
January 6th and twelfth night means that the season of Christmas is finished for now.
Epiphany starts with the story of the Three Wise Men. Travelling across the desert and following the star, what a wonderful story.
Decorations down, Christmas trees put away or taken outside, tinsel and cards put into little boxes.
But we can’t do that with Christmas! It’s here for good!
The good news lasts forever.
When the winter continues and the days remain dark for a little longer yet, think back to all those messages of hope and light coming into the world…Jesus with us.
Rev’d Sue Martin
From Advent to Christmas
As the shortest day brings increasing darkness and wintry weather so our Advent calendars move close towards Christmas Day.
People rushing from shops to home, travellers stranded at airports or in planes, caught in the snow on trains and in the roads.
And then on Saturday, all will be calm.
At Faith Goes Walkabout look for Advent, Christmas and Epiphany. Just some thoughts, prayers and the odd sermon too. Hope it gets you thinking or at least just a chance to read.
Look out for Church of England website and Norwich Diocese too. The BBC have a great programme running this week, called The Nativity.
