Dear Epiphany Family,


This Sunday begins our four-week observance of the Season of Creation. The Season of Creation is the annual celebration to listen and respond together to the cries of the earth and the need to protect our common home. It unites Christians from around the world from the Anglican Communion, the Orthodox tradition, the Roman Catholic Church, and many other traditions, in prayer and action on behalf of creation.

 

The theme for this year’s observance is Listening to the Voice of Creation. It acknowledges the need to listen to the voices of those who most suffer the impacts of climate change, the voices of those who hold generational wisdom about living gratefully with the land, and the voice of the Earth itself. 

 

During worship, you will notice that our liturgy and our Prayers of the People reflect the themes of creation care. You will even notice that the Lord’s Prayer is very different for the next four weeks. It is borrowed from the New Zealand Prayer Book and reflects a reverence for the earth that permeates their liturgies. If you prefer traditional prayer book language, know that we will return to the BCP Prayer B in October. I cherish our traditional liturgies, and I love how hearing different liturgies on occasion helps me experience Eucharist in a new way. God speaks in so many different ways! 

 

In addition to our liturgy, you will experience bread for Eucharist baked by parishioner Paul Hinson from locally sourced flour. Our flowers will be harvested from local farms. And you can participate again in the annual river cleanup project in partnership with our friends from the Ismaili communityBeyond what we do together at church, I hope you will plan to get out yourself and take a walk in the woods or find a way to enjoy and contemplate God’s creation and listen deeply for what it has to say. This season invites us to awaken again to the sacredness of everything and everyone God created.

 

We begin a new series in adult formation this month focused on the care of creation. Our first session this Sunday will be led by the Rev. Nicole Lambelet. Our children and youth will also be focusing on creation this month. 

 

May our celebration of the Season of Creation help us learn to listen more deeply to the voice of creation and our call to care for it. I hope to see you this Sunday.


Grace and peace,

Amy+

Creator of all, in this Season of Creation, we pray that you would call to us, as from the burning bush, with the sustaining fire of your Spirit. Turn us from our inward gaze. Teach us to contemplate your creation, and listen for the voice of each creature declaring your glory.

 

Give us hearts to listen, enlighten us with your grace, and fill us with the hope to quench the fires of injustice with the light of your healing love that sustains our common home. Amen.

Fall Back Into The Habit of Giving

by Randy Shearin, Treasurer


Summer isn’t over quite yet, but for many of us, Labor Day signals the start of fall. Fall is a time of year when our home lives seem to get back to normal; we transition to our routines, more regular worship and social activities as children head back to school. Like summer, it’s a busy time. At the finance committee meetings, we often joke about the “summer slump” in giving. Well, the slump is real this year — Epiphany is more than $20,000 behind our budget for the year. Much of that is due to the slowdown in pledge income that has occurred since May.


On behalf of the Finance Committee, I ask you to please take a minute during this time of return and make sure you fall back into the habit of giving.  You can check on your pledge status in REALM to see where you stand for the year. To check your giving status, please login to REALM by clicking here. (If you do not yet have a Realm Login, contact the parish office.)


While you are reviewing your pledge, I want to make another appeal. Our HVAC capital campaign has been successful, but Epiphany is about $50,000 shy of its goal to replace the HVAC system in the nave. The vestry is planning on getting a loan from the diocese to make up the difference, but the hope is to borrow as little as possible. If you find yourself able to give more in 2022 to help Epiphany close this gap, please let our bookkeeper, Susie Boyko, know. As a reminder, all donations to the HVAC campaign at Epiphany are tax deductible.


As always, if you have any questions on church finances, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.

Caring for Creation

by Frances Finnegan


I have been surprised to learn that the International Energy Agency reports that around the world this year, solar power is on course to be the fastest growing type of renewable energy. (www.iea.org). Thus, I am grateful for a company like Azuri that offers a "pay as you go" solar power plan to people living in Sub-Saharan Africa who normally use kerosene, an expensive fossil fuel.

A Dialogue Series on Race, Grounded in Faith

Epiphany’s Racial Justice Group and members of Holy Trinity Parish's Beloved Trinity invite you to participate in the Sacred Ground dialogue series, which is part of the Episcopal Church’s Becoming Beloved Community initiative on racial reconciliation.

Sacred Ground is an 11 session dialogue series on race, grounded in faith. The curriculum confronts the historical roots of systemic racism and examines how that history still shapes American institutions and social interactions today. If you have interest in participating in a Sacred Ground small group over the course of the academic year with members of Holy Trinity, please email the Rev. Nicole Lambelet.

Sacred Ground 2.0 - 9/19


For those of you who have already participated in the JustFaith series “Faith & Racial Equity," and/or the initial 2021-2022 Sacred Ground series, and/or some other comparable study on racial justice and equity, please save the date for our first meeting of Sacred Ground 2.0 on September 19, from 6:30-8:00 p.m. 

 

Sacred Ground 2.0 provides an opportunity for Epiphany and Holy Trinity members to continue to think theologically about the problem of racism and white supremacy, learn practical skills for deepening anti-racist work, and collaborate on efforts in our city and the wider church pertaining to racial justice. 

 

Sacred Ground 2.0 will take place once a month and will be led by the Rev. Rhett Solomon of Holy Trinity and the Rev. Nicole Lambelet of Epiphany. If you would like to learn more about Sacred Ground 2.0, have questions, or would like to RSVP for the first meeting please email the Rev. Nicole Lambelet

An update from Seminarian Megan Swett on her Journey


The date for my ordination to the Transitional Diaconate has been set for this coming December 17. I am filled with wonder, excitement, gratitude, and many other emotions about the fact that I have reached this point in my discernment process.


My journey of discernment has continued this year since I was admitted as a candidate for ordination in the spring. I find ongoing joy and meaning in the parish work I am privileged to undertake in loving and serving the body of Christ in Holy Trinity Parish. Unsurprisingly to me, working with adult formation groups to expand and deepen their faith through explorations of historical context, interpretation, and contemporary witness is a particular area to which I gravitate. I also had the opportunity to offer spiritual care to patients and their caregivers at the Emory Winship Cancer Institute through my chaplaincy internship this past summer. Having participated in the cancer experiences of several close friends and family members, and given my own contention with cancer several years ago, it was deeply meaningful to have the honor of accompanying patients in their care at Winship.


I have just begun my final year of my M.Div. program at Candler and am thrilled that, as has happened every semester, my courses seem to fit together in a serendipitous theme that is timely, and apropos of key areas of growth for me. In the spring, the theme was invigoratingly practical—focusing on both the practices of pastoral care and liturgy and the sacraments. This semester the theme is disrupting established narratives that prevent us from seeking and serving Christ in all persons and throughout creation. It promises also to build skills in crafting narratives that connect with people and place and develop stories of meaning that I look forward to applying in my ministry.


Through all of my learning and discerning, my family continues to sustain and challenge me in ways that teach me about loving one another on the daily. And as always, I am supported by the encouragement and prayers of this community. The few times I have had opportunity to come home to Epiphany for worship or programming this year have been a soul-filling gift. And I continue to hold this community in my prayers.
