Please
take time and
acquaint
yourself with
our programs,
ministries and
worship.
I think you
will be
impressed with
the activities
and the
fellowship you
will find in
our
congregation.
Note
particularly
the strong
focus on
ecumenical
life, which
has always
been central
for us and the
other members
of the
Tri-Church.
This emphasis
provides a
whole new
and enriching
aspect to our
lives.
Please
know that we
are always
delighted for
you to worship
with us at St. Cyprian’s.
Welcome
to our
worship!
May your
spirits be
uplifted &
empowered
to do God’s
work in the
world!
Message
from Fr.
Victor Li
Prayer for the
New Year
"Almighty and
everlasting
God, you crown
our years with
your goodness
and
bounty.
As the years
change from
one to
another, may
we find peace
and rest in
the constancy
of your
eternal
love. We
give thanks
for the
blessings of
this past
year. We
ask for your
forgiveness of
our sins and
shortcomings.
Help us to
meet this New
Year with
courage and
your
wisdom.
Guide and
protect us in
our everyday
life, so that
we may live to
glorify your
holy name;
through Jesus
Christ our
Lord, who
lives and
reigns with
you and the
Holy Spirit,
one God, now
and for
ever."
Amen.
At this time of
the year, the
calendar tells
us
that there is
an ending and
a new
beginning.
We say
goodbye to
2018 and start
writing 2019
to usher in a
new year.
Our lives are
marked by
numbers:
linear time
that will not
go
backward.
If time
marches on,
time does not
redeem or save
us,
we keep moving
on until we
stop or we are
stopped.
However, God’s
time is not
lineal or
cyclical.
God is the
Alpha and the
Omega,
the beginning
and the
end!
God breaks
into our
history,
bringing about
change and
transformation,
therefore
meaning.
We find
meaning in our
lives, because
of our
relationship
with this
God.
In the midst
of winter, we
proclaim:
God is near,
or better
still, God is
here with us!
