The Prophecy of Zacharias
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 28 Dec, 2025
When Zacharias’ mouth was opened after being mute, he was filled with the Holy Spirit and he prophesied. We will go through the words he said, as a way of reflecting on what the Lord accomplished when He came. We will also reflect on what each of us might say if we were filled with the Holy Spirit. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

Christmas Day Service: Responding Angelically
Worship Service: Sermon only - 25 Dec, 2025
(Luke 1:26-27) In the story of Gabriel appearing to Zacharias and then to Mary, we find guidance as to how we can respond angelically to other people, and to the prompts we receive from the Lord. We are angels in the making. How will you choose to be sent by God as Gabriel was, and what angelic quality will you strive to embrace in this Christmas season? | By Rt. Rev. Peter Martin Buss, Jr. , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
Christmas Eve Service: To Proclaim and Ponder the Good News
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 24 Dec, 2025
After the shepherds had visited the newborn Jesus, “they made widely known the saying which was spoken to them concerning this little Child.” Mary, meanwhile, “kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.” (Luke 2:17-19). At Christmas, we have the opportunity to both joyfully proclaim the Lord’s birth and quietly reflect on what His birth means for our lives and for the world. | By Rev. Coleman S. Glenn , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
Magnify the Lord
Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 21 Dec, 2025
Choices are like a magnifying glass - we magnify the thoughts and feelings that capture our attention at any given point in time which means we can “magnify” negative thoughts and feelings just as easily as positive ones. But something miraculous happens when we, like Mary, in the face of our worries and concerns, consciously and deliberately magnify the Lord. We start to see and feel things we never saw or felt before. | By Rev. Derek P. Elphick , Bryn Athyn Cathedral
