Tuesday evening about 5:45 p.m. we learned that Bert's heart surgery went very well. The doctor is pleased and he will be in ICU for a few day recovering and in the hospital up to 2 weeks. Please keep Bert and his family in your thoughts and prayers.
We are now in Lent and will be using Rite I for the worship service. We want to congratulate the congregation and choir on how well all did with the change in service music, and especially The Great Litany.
Before we go any further, a special Thanks to all that participated in the Church Cleaning this last Saturday. It just looks wonderful. Audrey Maltos does a good job but can only do so much in her part time job at Epiphany. All is appreciated.

Michael in his sermon Sunday talked about Adam and Eve in the garden. Toward the beginning of the sermon, he said, "Still, God put the prohibition in the strongest possible terms, leaving no doubt about consequences: do this, or you'll die. We were just never going to take the easy way. Better to live, knowing that we would one day die, in order to be able to make mistakes, feel fear and triumph, most of all, the joy and heartbreak of human love. Thanks Michael.
Have a blessed week,
Carpe every Diem,
Rufus and Sandy
