The Third Sunday after the Epiphany falls in the midst of the week of Prayer for Christian Unity, which began, as it always does, with the Feast of the Confession of Saint Peter on January 18, and ends with the Feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul on January 25. On the Sunday that falls within this octave, we have a guest preacher, often but not always from outside the Episcopal Church.

This year, we welcome The Rev’d Dr. Raymond Judd, Jr., Chaplain Emeritus of Trinity University, San Antonio, Texas. He also preached at 11am.

‚ñ∫The Rector speaks about the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity in his weekly audio message.

About Choral Evensong:  Based on the services held daily in the medieval Church, Choral Evensong as arranged in the Book of Common Prayer of the Anglican Church has been sung regularly since the Sixteenth Century. Many people who are new to worship at Saint Thomas prefer to come to Choral Evensong because it is relatively passive. The service includes readings (just as would occur at Evening Prayer) and prayers led by a priest. An anthem as well as a setting of the Magnificat and the Nunc dimittis are sung by the choir. Read more about Choral Evensong here, or view the Choral Evensong Service Card posted to the bottom of this page, where links to the webcast will be posted during and after the service.

‚ñ∫There is no Mass following Choral Evensong on Sundays. If you would like to make your Holy Communion for the week, consider attending one of the morning Eucharists, or else at any of the other sixteen masses at Saint Thomas later this week.

‚ñ∫If you are new to Saint Thomas, new to the Episcopal Church, and/or new to Christianity, consider attending the Rector’s Christian Doctrine Class, which began anew on Tuesday, January 10 and continues on Tuesday, January 24 at 6:30pm.

‚ñ∫A new CD was recently released by Saint Thomas. Read more here and order your copy today.
