A "Swinging Epiphany Celebration" returns to St. Johnsbury, VT on Friday, January 6, 2023 sponsored by United Community Church, St. J. Jazz and Swing North Big Band. A Swinging Epiphany Celebration debuted in St. Johnsbury in 2012 and has been presented annually in venues across northern Vermont and New Hampshire. A fresh version of the celebration will be presented at United Community Church in St. Johnsbury on January 6. The 7:00 pm program will be in a "lessons and carols" format, re-telling the Christmas story from Scripture interspersed with jazz carol arrangements and swing standards performed by a full 18-piece jazz ensemble. A free-will offering will be accepted to defray costs and hopefully help support local missions.
Epiphany, also known as Three Kings Day, falls on the twelfth day of Christmas. Epiphany refers to the revelation or manifestation of the deity. While it marks the end of the holiday season, Epiphany also celebrates seeing God in human form, seeing the light of the Bethlehem star, and seeing the world in a new way. United Community Church is offering A Swinging Epiphany Celebration as an opportunity for people to hear and experience the Christmas story, and jazz, in a new way.
