Epiphany at Christ Memorial

Open my eyes that I may see.  Open my ears that I may hear.
Open my mind that I may know.  Open my heart that I may live.

“UPON BEING SHOWN”  is how the word “Epiphany” translates from the Greek “epi-phanein”.  The three wise men were led by a star and “shown” the savior of the world. God is always showing something of Godself to us – through creation, people, scripture, ritual, meditation, and the events of life, including struggle and suffering.   During this season which this year ends on March 3,  our discipline is to pay attention.  Become aware of God manifesting Godself to you.  

Pray, meditate, journal through the season of Epiphany

COMING UP!

CENTERING PRAYER WITH DR. MATTHEW MILLER
1st and 3rd Sundays
4:00-5:00 PM in the Sanctuary
​Faith Offering

Centering Prayer is a wonderful way to quiet our minds and be present to our God.  There are many gifts that come with a centering practice: relieving stress and anxiety,  creative inspiration, awakening of the senses, and a sense of becoming one with Mary, Jesus and our God.

Most of us know Dr. Matt Miller from Sunday worship as the guitarist with the beautiful bass voice, who wrote several music settings to the Advent scriptures.  Dr. Matt graduated from UCLA with a PhD in Medieval English Literature in 1993, and decided the most useful thing he could do would be to teach people literacy skills. He did so until 2016, working at various locations including Island School and Kauai Community College. Now he is doing something even more useful — teaching Centering Prayer, a discipline he says is “paradise.”
