The faithful of St. John Cassian Chapel gathered together on Friday, the fifth of January, for the celebration of the Royal Hours for the Nativity of Christ, for prayer and the hearing of the holy prophecies concerning the birth of Our Lord and God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, as well as the holy Gospels announcing His incarnation to the world. On Saturday evening, the services of Great Vespers and Great Compline were served in candlelight, in anticipation of the Feast.

On Sunday morning, the faithful gathered together to serve the Festal Matins and Divine Liturgy. The services were chanted beautifully by the choir, and all of the faithful communed of the Holy Mysteries. Priest Justinian Burnett preached a rousing sermon on the significance of the incarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ, highlighting that by becoming one of His own creatures, the eternal God became the God-man, and so ensure the possibility of our ascent to the Heavens following Him by becoming united with Him.

After the Divine services, a delicious festal potluck meal was shared by all the members of the community, and gifts were exchanged by friends and god-family.

At Theophany, the faithful participated in all the Divine Service for the Feast, and partook of the Holy Water blessed at the conclusion of the Divine Liturgy.
