Candlemas Service
Sunday, February 2nd, 6:00pm
Candlemas is one of the oldest Christian liturgical observances dating back to the fourth century. It observes Jesus being presented at the Temple 40 days after his birth as was the custom. Luke 2:22-24 tells the story of Mary and Joseph arriving at the Temple, in accordance with the Law of Moses, to make sacrifices for their eldest son and to complete the rites of purification for Mary. Simeon and Anna, devout worshipers in the Temple, saw Jesus with the eyes of their hearts and recognized him as the Messiah. From their praise we have the Song of Simeon which is also found in our Book of Common Prayer. We celebrate this day with a quiet, contemplative, candlelit, service in the Nave.
