Last Sunday In Epiphany
Sunday, January 29th, is the Fourth and last Sunday After Epiphany in A.D. 2012. Since Easter comes earlier this year, the Epiphany season has only four Sundays. Sunday's Reflection on the Gospel reading from Matthew 8:1-13 examines the Healing of the Leper and the Healing of the Centurion's Servant in the context of the Hebrew understanding of leprosy and of how it should be healed (by Priests). Listen using the link in the left column and also see the Epipany at St Chrysostom page for the historical graphic from Canon Farrar's Life of Christ (1894).
The following Sunday we shift to the first of the three celebrations of "gesima" season. Not all Anglican parishes continue to use this older celebration, which has been abandoned by the Roman Catholic Church. This year, in the three oral essays for the season, the explanation of the name and the meaning of each name will be explained only in the first episode, for Septuagesima Sunday, Feb. 5th.
New Videocasts for A. D. 2012
Beginning Tuesday, Jan. 31st, The Anglican Hour will be recorded in the Sanctuary area of St. Joseph's Villa Chapel. Tuesday's episode, Part Two of The Lord's Prayer: Phrase-by-Phrase, will focus on the meaning of the first of the six petitions: "Give us this day our daily bread." A new episode will be recorded each week during February.
