The Epiphany of the Lord St. Veronica’s Parish Celebrates The Epiphany of the Lord Opening Hymn: O Come, All Ye Faithful 1. O come, all ye faithful Joyful and triumphant O come ye, o come ye to Bethlehem Come and behold Him Born the King of Angels! O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him Christ the Lord 2. Sing, choirs of angels Sing in exultation Sing, all ye citizens of heav'n above! Glory to God, all glory in the highest Responsorial Psalm Lord, every nation on earth will adore you. x2 Nicene Creed I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. 1 He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen. Offertory Hymn: What Child Is This 1. What Child is this who laid to rest On Mary's lap is sleeping Whom angels greet with anthems sweet While shepherds watch are keeping This this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and angels sing Haste haste to bring Him laud The Babe the Son of Mary 2. Why lies He in such mean estate Where ox and ass are feeding Good Christian fear for sinners here The silent Word is pleading Nails spear shall pierce Him through The cross be borne for me for you Hail hail the Word made flesh The Babe the Son of Mary 3. So bring Him incense gold and myrrh Come peasant king to own Him The King of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone Him Raise raise the song on high The Virgin sings her lullaby Joy joy for Christ is born The Babe the Son of Mary Communion Hymn: Love Has Come 1. With one voice the Angels sing; songs that make creation ring Prophets hear and call us 2 to live in spirit and in truth 2. God the Father, Elohim; voice of thunder, spirit wind Breathe on me your very life; Grace will make the darkness bright Word of God enthroned, dwell in us forevermore; Love has come to show the way Halleluiah, peace be with us Love has come to show the way 3. God of covenant divine, lead us to the end of time Beyond sorrow, beyond fear; beyond pride and earthen tears 4. Keeper of the sacrifice, manifest in Jesus Christ Born to die and wake the dead As we hunger, keep us fed 5. Now salvation has come in the New Jerusalem Dancers dance and singers roar; proclaiming Jesus Christ is Lord An Act of Spiritual Communion My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to separate from You. Amen. Recessional Hymn: The First Nowell 1. The first Nowell, the angel did say, Was to certain poor shepards in fields as they lay: In fields where they lay keeping their sheep On a cold winter's night that was so deep Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel! 2. They looked up and saw a star Shining in the east beyond them far And to the earth it gave great light And so it continued both day and night Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel 3 Born is the King of Israel! 3. And by the light of that same star Three Wise men came from country far To seek for a King was their intent And to follow the star wherever it went Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel! 4. This star drew nigh to the northwest O'er Bethlehem it took its rest And there it did both stop and stay Right o'er the place where Jesus lay Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel! 5. Then entered in those Wise men three Fell reverently upon their knee And offered there in His presence Their gold and myrrh and frankincense Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the kind of Israel! 6. Then let us all with one accord Sing praises to our heavenly Lord Who with the Father we adore And Spirit blest forever more Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel!

    Student Research and Creative Works Book Collecting Contest Essays University of Puget Sound Year 2015 The Wonderful World of Whedon: A Collection of Texts Celebrating Joss Whedon and His Works Krista Silva University of Puget Sound, [email protected] This paper is posted at Sound Ideas. http://soundideas.pugetsound.edu/book collecting essays/6 Krista Silva The Wonderful World of Whedon: A Collection of Texts Celebrating Joss Whedon and His Works I am an inhabitant of the Whedonverse. When I say this, I don’t just mean that I am a fan of Joss Whedon. I am sincere. I live and breathe his works, the ever-expanding universe— sometimes funny, sometimes scary, and often heartbreaking—that he has created. A multi- talented writer, director and creator, Joss is responsible for television series such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer , Firefly , Angel , and Dollhouse . In 2012 he collaborated with Drew Goddard, writer for Buffy and Angel , to bring us the satirical horror film The Cabin in the Woods . Most recently he has been integrated into the Marvel cinematic universe as the director of The Avengers franchise, as well as earning a creative credit for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. My love for Joss Whedon began in 1998. I was only eleven years old, and through an incredible moment of happenstance, and a bit of boredom, I turned the television channel to the WB and encountered my first episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer . I was instantly smitten with Buffy Summers. She defied the rules and regulations of my conservative southern upbringing.

  • Order of Service
    St John’s College Chapel Epiphany Carol Service Saturday 20 & Sunday 21 January 2018 6.00 pm Please turn the page quietly EPIPHANY Epiphany celebrates the appearance of God’s glory in the world through the birth of Jesus, our Emmanuel (‘God with us’), and the revelation of the incarnation to the Gentiles, and indeed the whole of creation. It has been marked since the 3rd Century with a Feast Day on the 6th of January and celebrated in both East and West in a rich variety of ways. In the Western Church, the emphasis has been on the nativity itself and the acknowledgement of Christ’s sovereignty over all through the visit of the Magi bringing their gifts of frankincense, gold and myrrh. The revelation of his true nature is echoed in the words of the prophet Simeon, the Nunc Dimittis, at the Presentation of Christ in the Temple (February 2nd) that marks the end of the season of Epiphany. The Greek word epiphany (έπιφάνεια) means literally ‘appearance’ and refers above all to the ‘manifestation’ of a god. It is the moment and the means by which we see that Jesus is so much more than a good human being, a wise teacher and a moral example but in fact God made man, the Word become flesh. It is in this sense that Simeon declares him to be ‘salvation’ and ‘a light to lighten the Gentiles’ and that later Jesus calls himself ‘the Light of the World,’ and so the symbolism of light pervades both this season and our service.

    epiphany Online Journal of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences International University of Sarajevo ISSN 1840-3719 / Volume 1 / No. 1 Fall 2008 The Concept of God in Beowulf and The Book of Dede Korkut Hülya Taflı Erciyes University Epic is an extended narrative poem, grand in scope, exalted in style, and heroic in theme, often giving expression to the ideals of a nation or race (Legouis: 1943: 22). Although the locations and the eras of the epics differ, the similarities of conditions bring them into existence. In this article Beowulf, the English epic, and The Book of Dede Korkut, the Turkish epic, are going to be compared in order to depict the similarities and the differences of the concept of God in different locations and eras. The geographical location of Beowulf is in the northwest of England and The Book of Dede Korkut is is in the north of Anatolia. Orchard states that the geographical location of Beowulf is around the Baltic Sea and the North Sea where the Swedes, Jutes, Geats, Danes, Angles, Heathobards and Frisians lived (2003: xiii). When these tribes are compared chronologically, it can be seen that the Angles were highly influenced by the Danes, Geats, and other Germanic and Scandinavian tribes. Cherniss asserts that these tribes may be considered to be the ancestors of the English; the scops may have travelled among the tribes of Germania and the documents of the travels highlight the ancestors of the English (1972: 14). On the other hand the geographical location of The Book of Dede Korkut is around the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea, in what is today Asia.

  • Major Arcana the Following Is the Journey of the Major Arcana
    The Major Arcana The following is the journey of the Major Arcana. We are going to go through them briefly together, but it is also super essential you spend time with this journey over the next week! This course is taught from the Angel Tarot, and you can use the Angel Tarot, or the Archangel Power Tarot, both by Doreen Virtue & Radleigh Valentine. Of course this information can be applied to any card deck! The Major Arcana in general are some very powerful cards! In general they hold greater weight and meaning than the “minor arcana” (which are the other suites that will be discussed). They are also referred to as the trump cards and are the foundational piece of the Tarot deck. They make up the first 21 cards in the deck, and tell a really beautiful story. They are representative of a path to spiritual self awareness and unveil the different stages of life as we move thorough our path. They all hold very deep meaningful lessons. The recording in this week goes through those, and it is also important you listen to your own heart in what they mean to you. If a lot of Major Arcana appear, pay attention to two main points: 1. The person you are reading for may be going through some big life changes. 2. The more that appear the less free will and choice that person may have (but of course there is ALWAYS free will and choice). The Major Arcana cards are all numbered, and in the Angel Tarot are associated with an Angel.

SÍNTESE:REVISTA DE FILOSOFIA ADERE A UMA LICENÇA NÃO COMERCIAL 4.0 INTERNACIONAL -CREATIVE COMMONS DOI: 10.20911/21769389v44n140p393/2017 artigos HORIZON AND EPIPHANY Horizonte e Epifania Jeffrey Bloechl * Abstract: When philosophy consents to working within the range of human finitude, it sets itself on a course toward some difficulty accepting claims for the existence and experience of the God who is said to be one and absolute. Phenomenology is such a philosophy, and Christianity worships such a God. Of course, this difficulty only repeats one that may occur to us in the form of a question already at the level of everyday life, or what the phenomenologists call ‘the natural aVitude.’ How does God become known to me, without God ceasing to be God or me ceasing to be my finite self? In fact, the philosophical difficulty is fortuitous, since it brings a sophisticated conceptual reserve to bear on what might otherwise remain only a puzzle or a wound for ordinary believ- ers. What does it mean to say that God appears to us? And by what rigor might we begin to determine the specific nature of such a claim? Phenomenologists propose that this is a question of horizons. Keywords: Transcendence. Phenomenology. Experience of God. Horizons. Resumo: Quando a filosofia consente em operar no âmbito da finitude humana, ela se situa em uma via que conduz a certa dificuldade de aceitar afirmações da existência e experiência de um Deus visto como sendo único e absoluto.

  • Epiphany and Authenticity: the Aesthetic Vision of Charles Taylor
    Epiphany and Authenticity: The Aesthetic Vision of Charles Taylor Brian J. Braman The language of self-fulfillment, self-actualization, and self-realization have become common currency in contemporary culture. In fact, these ideas can be subsumed under the inclusive term of authenticity. Cultural critics such as the late Allan Bloom and Christopher Lasch see this desire for individual self-fulfillment, for being authentic, as a form of narcissism that closes ott concern for the greater issues that transcend the self, be they political or religious. For Charles Taylor, however, although a certain moral relativism can be associated with the desire for self-fulfillment, this posi­ tion is in the last analysis a profound mistake. What the critics of authentic­ ity fail to see is the moral ideal underlining this desire for authentic self-re­ alization. This ideal is the intense desire to live one ·s life by a higher standard. In short, the question of the constitution of authentic human exis­ tence is a question of a moral ideal that ought to be taken seriously because the meaning of authenticity has shaped, and continues to shape, our under­ standing of what it means to be human. For Taylor the idea of authenticity is a rich, vibrant, and vitally impor­ tant addition to any conversation concerning what it means to be human. Authenticity, properly understood. is "a picture of what a better or higher mode of life would be, where better and higher are defined not in terms of what we happen to desire or need, but offer a standard of what we ought to desire.'' 1 Taylor's view of authenticity expresses the conviction that terms such as self-fulfillment and self-realization are not just cover stories for narcissism, nor are they terms that justify a stance that is labeled the "liber- I Charles Taylor.
