We are a small Episcopal Church on the banks of the Rappahannock in Port Royal, Virginia. We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Port Royal, the Nandtaughtacund, and we respect and honor with gratitude the land itself, the legacy of the ancestors, and the life of the Rappahannock Tribe. Our mission statement is to do God’s Will in all that we do.

Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany, The Presentation

Note: In the Epiphany cycle, Feb 2 is the 4th Sunday after the Epiphany. However, since Feb. 2 is a feast day, the Presentation of Jesus in the temple, the Presentation takes precedence so the lectionary will be the Presentation. The Lectionary for Epiphany 4 is also included below to keep the Epiphany flow going.
