[Magdalen] Brightest and Best - The Epiphany, January 6, 2016.

[Lynn Ronkainen]

Green vestment/parament usage does not equal Ordinary time...  That/if it is 
called such in a parish is an error, probably brought about by the 
using/wearing of green.

Epiphany tide is  a unique slice between the season of Christmas and the 
beginning of Lent.

single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
