From the Interim Rector:
It is time at last-time for God-With-Us
The wait is over, and the time has arrived. The promise is past, and the fulfillment is here. Way back in Isaiah's time, God promised to us a child and has now become that child, to dwell with us and bring us to salvation. Thank you, gracious God. Welcome, Lord Jesus.
And to you at Calvary Episcopal Church, have a very blessed Christmas season. You carry the Christ Child with you in your heart, and don't you ever forget it.
Joanna's cell phone number is available for members' pastoral emergencies. If you are being hospitalized, are having surgery, have a death in the family, are experiencing a personal crisis, or have been arrested, please call Joanna at 859.803.0665.

Where do you find GOD?
How do you SERVE?

O
God, you have caused this holy night to shine with the brightness of the true Light: Grant that we, who have known the mystery of that Light on earth, may also enjoy him perfectly in heaven; where with you and the Holy Spirit he lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen
