| Guest Preacher: Mr. Gabe Giella |
| |
This Sunday we thank Gabe, a member of Epiphany's Vestry, for offering the Homily. We are pleased to announce that Gabe has entered the diocesan ordination process and is discerning for Holy Orders of Priesthood. We have assembled a Parish Discernment Team (Emily Dench, Gretchen Gammons, Pam Harrop, Arthur Manning & Fran Motroni) to meet with Gabe over the summer to help him articulate God's call in his life. We look forward to accompanying such a gifted person on this journey and we will share often about his progress! Please keep him and the discernment team in your prayers. |

During August, worship will have full music in the style of 10:30 a.m. In September, the Vestry and Worship Team will evaluate the experience and look forward to hearing your thoughts! |

| Hiking and Holy Eucharist |
| |
SAVE THE DATES to Worship outdoors! Saturday afternoons, July 23, August 27 & October 1, take a hike with your family and the Epiphany community on a local trail, stop halfway for a simple worship service of the weekend's Gospel reading, sharing prayers and celebrating Holy Communion outdoors. Then we'll hike back enjoying fellowship with God's creation and one another and perhaps share a picnic supper together. Stay tuned for details TBD, but save the dates! |
