What’s happening at Incarnation
Join our email list to receive weekly updates, spiritual reflections, and access information for offerings held via Zoom. Here are a few highlights!
Advent Bible Study
Beginning November 27, our Sunday morning Bible study, held from 10:00 to 10:30 a.m. in the Parish House and on Zoom, will take four weeks to examine how the Gospels approach the nativity story. We will spend a week on each of the three Gospel accounts of Jesus’ birth–found in Matthew, Luke, and John–before spending a final week integrating what we’ve learned with the rest of the New Testament, and Christian history, into a reflection on what importance the incarnation has for us today.

Sermon Talkbacks
During the Sundays of Advent, we’ll be bringing back the “Sermon Talkbacks” that were so popular this past Lent! Talkbacks will take place in the Assembly Hall from 12:30 to 1:15 p.m. on November 27, December 4, and December 18. Grab your coffee and a folding chair for a roundtable discussion with the preacher about the sermon. This will be a time when you can ask questions, give feedback, and help us all to deepen the conversation that the sermon has only just begun.
Incarnation Christmas Fair returns!
After a pandemic-related hiatus, we are excited to bring back Incarnation’s Christmas Fair on Saturday, December 3, 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. It will be here before you know it, so planning is underway! Contact Laurie Mygatt to volunteer, and please donate salable items now for early sorting and pricing. Please also consider special donations for our silent auction, such as gift certificates to local restaurants, unique “antiques” and housewares, and items for gift baskets (nice wines, fancy mustards, gourmet coffee, etc.).
20s/30s St. Nick's Party
The biggest party of the year for 20s/30s in the Episcopal Diocese of New York (EDNY) is the annual EDNY “St. Nick’s Party.” This year, the party will be held on Saturday, December 3, from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. at Trinity Wall Street’s version of a “parish house” – Trinity Commons, located at 79 Trinity Place. It’s sure to be a festive night, full of all that the season holds. Contact the Rev. Dr. Nate Lee to RSVP.
Help decorate the church for Christmas
Drop by the church on Friday, December 9, from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. Join the fun and enjoy some eggnog as we rekindle the spirit of the season with greens and poinsettias!
Lessons and Carols, followed by the Parish Christmas Party
Sunday, December 11, at 5:00 p.m. With Organ, Brass, Harp and the Incarnation Choir. An Incarnation tradition, a Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols is one of the most beloved services we present each year. It consists of lessons from scripture interspersed with carols reflecting on the themes of the readings. The lessons, which cover the fall of humanity, the promise of the Messiah, and the birth of Jesus, are read by representatives of the parish.

Receiving from the Reserved Sacrament
Incarnation is offering the sacrament of Holy Communion (in one kind) to individuals who do not feel comfortable attending in-person worship. If you would like to come to the Parish House to receive the host from the reserved sacrament, please contact the Rev. Adrian Dannhauser. We are always eager to share the gift of God’s grace with you.
Spiritual Tips and Biblical Reflections
We are collecting spiritual tips and reflections on Scripture from members and friends of the parish. If you have a favorite prayer practice, devotional book, Bible verse or other source of spiritual nourishment, contact the clergy to share it with the larger Incarnation community. Submissions in writing or video recording (up to 2 minutes) are welcome. Thank you for helping us “encourage one another and build each other up” as the Body of Christ. (1 Thess. 5:11).
