Epiphany celebrates the manifestation of Christ to the three Wise Men, and by extension to all of us. More generally, epiphany means “a striking appearance, or revelation, or coming suddenly into view.” How is Christ shining forth in this century? How can we see the incarnation in current events? For the next three weeks, join Barb and Paul Laymon to discuss epiphanies in 2023, using the miracle stories in John as a scriptural basis. Up first this Sunday, we consider demographics and predictions by some church leaders that the Episcopal Church is on the decline. Please join us in person or via Zoom for this timely presentation and discussion.

The growlers are back! Take home a growler (or two!) of your brew crew's finest, available after services on Sunday. Pouring our favorite "St. Paul" porter, a nice IPA, and (yes, still!) a nice Okoberfest lager.

Please save the date for our church-wide Annual Meeting on February 12 at 10 a.m. We are thrilled to be able to gather once again in-person in the Parish Hall, though parishioners are also welcome to join via Zoom. We will share additional information over the coming weeks.

Does your Realm profile include a photo? Have you moved? Added a new child? PLEASE consider logging into Realm to confirm/update your profile ahead of the annual Church Directory printing! (Or if you'd prefer, send any updates to Jordan directly!)

If you would like to be baptized (or you would like your child to be!), please reach out to John. We have scheduled one more date for baptism - February 12 - before the reflective season of Lent.

This February, the First Friday Book Group is reading How to be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi. The author uses his own story along with social history to help the reader go beyond awareness of racism in order to work toward a just society. Join us in person (or via Zoom) at 7 p.m. on February 3. A light dinner will be provided. Questions? Contact Sandy Hussey.

The Film Group is on break until February. Look for us to return with a special Valentine’s Day event, followed by our Lenten Film Series. Enjoy your time away from the screen!

To celebrate the 100th apartment set up since GNCH began in 2016, all Outreach donations in January will go to Good Neighbors of Capitol Hill. We are thrilled to continue our support of this longtime partner, as apartments 101-103 are currently being set up - some for newly arrived Ukrainian refugees. For more information on how to help GNCH in 2023, contact Lisa Nickerson or visit the Good Neighbors website. 

From 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. THIS Saturday, January 14, please join us for breakfast honoring volunteers, donors, and friends of the Stanikzai's and other Afghan families we have served over the past year.  The co-hosted breakfast takes place at St. Mark's, and the CC+WP Men's Group will be flipping the pancakes & scrambling the eggs! (It is helpful, though not required, to RSVP to Kim Bayliss so we can be sure to flip enough 'cakes! She would also be happy to assign a task if you'd like to volunteer for the welcoming or clean-up crew.) This event is decidedly family friendly, and tweens/teens especially welcome to help entertain the Afghan children.

Coats, shoes, clothing, and blankets are needed in all sizes and for all genders. Bring new or lightly used items clean, bagged and labeled - by contents and sizes - to St. Mark's from Monday-Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. for distribution through the Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid Network. Find out more about supporting migrants, or sign up to help sort donations.

Celebrate the work of Good Neighbors Capitol Hill by attending a fundraising concert by Second String Orchestra on Saturday, January 28, 7:30 p.m. at St. Mark’s. The Orchestra includes talented string instrumentalists from our neighborhood, including several members of CC+WP, and will feature guest musician, Hamid Habibzadah, playing the tabla. Tickets can be purchased at the door or reserved by contacting GNCH ($20 per person or $40 per family is requested.) A reception will follow the concert in thanks to the community of friends and neighbors who have so generously supported GNCH's efforts.

Please consider signing up to buy groceries for our monthly lunch-making for the homeless at the CCNV shelter, or monthly homemade suppers for the women in Calvary's transitional housing program. Signup sheets for 2023 are on the outreach bulletin board and online. Thank you!
