Sorry I have been absent.
My poetry dried up after all the Christmas writing.
I keep looking for poems and they aren't there.
That's OK, that's the way it happens.
As I said earlier, I don't like to go very far without updating my blog because so many of you are checking in.
Today is Epiphany -- the celebration of the arrival of the Magi. We common see them at the creches but I don't believe they made it to manger. I think they showed up in a house and Jesus was between 1 and 2 years old when they arrived.
Epiphany brings the season of Christmastide to an end. It's OK to take your decorations down -- except, please leave one out all year round to remind you of Jesus' birth.
Today, at the Turney Church, I will be preaching about Covenant. John Wesley has a Covenant service to be used at the beginning of the year. I won't be using the service, but I will be referring to it and will talk about the meaning of covenant. We will conclude the service by celebrating Holy Communion when we received the "blood of the new covenant."
Hopefully, I'll have a new poem for you soon.
