Weekly Mass Schedule Epiphany Port Orange It is time to offer ourselves selflessly and return to the Father, to celebrate with a feast. Effective Palm Sunday, April 10, 2022, the obligation to participate in the Eucharist in person on Sundays and other holy days of obligation is restored.
Vantage Point is a casual small group environment where people explore Catholic Christianity, the message and teachings of Jesus and how to apply them to their life. Join Us For Morning Prayer Each morning, Monday through Saturday at 8:00am before morning Mass, a group of parishioners recite the Morning Prayer from the Liturgy of the Hours, the Universal Prayer of the Church. The Church considers this prayer to be second in importance only to the Mass itself. The Second Vatican Council has encouraged Lay people to also pray this beautiful liturgy. We invite all who are interested to join with us and we will be happy to assist any who are unfamiliar with the service. At present we say the Morning Hour (Lauds) in the Church. See you there! From The Epiphany Food Pantry • Spaghetti Sauce (medium-sized cans) Donations can be dropped off in the shopping carts in the vestibules of the church or directly to the Food Pantry M & F, 1-3pm. Thank you for your generosity! Support Epiphany with your Amazon Purchases Here’s how it works: Every little bit helps! Thank you! Epiphany Thrift Store is OPEN!

Welcoming You Home to Epiphany In order to safely gather together as the Body of Christ and to safeguard the health of our community members, there have been some adjustments and changes to the way we pray, gather, and celebrate liturgy as a community. Bishop Noonan and the Diocese of Orlando have set forth these guidelines and they will be implemented across all parishes in the Diocese of Orlando. If you have not already, we invite you to watch the bishop’s video that explains these changes. You may also read about these changes in the link below.
