[Magdalen] Epiphany

[Lynn Ronkainen]

At my former church we celebrated Epiphany on 'the day' only when it was on 
a Sunday or when we had assistant rectors who were generally gung-ho... to 
do so. Our rector of 20 years did not ever celebrate it on a non Sunday. 
Mileage varies in this dio, but most TEC churches I'm aware of that no not 
celebrate on a weekday 6th, celebrate the Sunday before.

When I stand before God at the end of my life I would hope that I have not a 
single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
