Notice something familiar about our Centennial logo?

The star of Bethlehem, the rainbow of God’s promises - these are images inspired by the stained glass window in the sanctuary that rises before worshipers every week. The star that led Magi to worship the Christ child, the Son of God, reminds one of the cross by which the Father has promised to draw all people to God’s very self.

Prayer

O God, on this day you revealed your Son to the nations by the leading of a star. Lead us now by faith to know your presence in our lives, and bring us at last to the full vision of your glory, through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
Prayer for the Epiphany of Our Lord, ELW p. 21
