Sundays at All Hallows (Sunday, January 5, 2025) Is Now Online


Welcome to Sundays at All Hallows

Monday, January 6, is the Feast of the Epiphany. However, the feast may be celebrated on a Sunday that falls between January 2 and January 8. This Sunday, the last Sunday of the Christmas Season, falls on January 5 so we are celebrating the Feast of the Epiphany on this Sunday, using the propers, prayers and readings, for the Feast of Epiphany instead of those for the Second Sunday after Christmas. We are also using the order of service for a Service of the Word found in the Additional Direction on pages 406-408 of The Book of Common Prayer (1979). The service begins with the Penitential Rite and concludes with the Grace or the Peace, depending upon how many people are present.

This Sunday’s message takes a look at a choice facing Christians in the New Year, in the reminder of the decade, and beyond.

Readings: Isaiah 60: 1-6; Ephesians 3:1-12; and Matthew 2: 1-15; 19-23

Message: The Choice Christians Face

If you are new to Sundays at All Hallows, you may find these directions helpful:

-It is recommended that after reading or hearing each lesson to take time to reflect on what you read or heard during the period of silence which follows each lesson. It is also recommended that you do the same thing after reading or hearing the message.

-When you open the link to a video in a new tab, check auto-play to make sure it is in the off position. Otherwise, a second video with a different song will follow the first.

-If an ad plays when you open a link to a video in a new tab, click the refresh icon of your browser until the song appears.

-If a song begins partway through the video, click pause, move the slider to the beginning, and then click play.

-An ad may follow a song so as soon as the song is finished, close the tab.

May Sundays at All Hallows be a blessing to you.
