On Sunday, August 7th, we will have an annual Summer Parish meeting and group shot picture and picnic after the 10 am service. All are welcome
On Sunday, July 24th, Erika Buswell, the director of the local Restorative Justice Project will be with us to speak about their program at the end of the 10 am service.
We have been working with this program for years now, both by having them use our space and various parishioners working with them. This will be a wonderful opportunity for us all to hear about this exciting work.
Our Sunday services are at 8 am for a Rite I service of Holy Eucharist, we live-stream this service on Facebook; and a 10 am service of Holy Eucharist, Rite 2 with music.
We also have a Wednesday service of Morning Prayer at 11 am in the sanctuary.
We continue our Wednesday Book Study, and are back to in person gatherings. Morning Prayer is in the Sanctuary at 11 am and then we share lunch together, it is a bring you own affair. Then book study is from noon until 1 pm
Our current book is You are not listening by Kate Murphy
