First Sunday in Lent

Worship

Next Sunday, February 25th, we will welcome a special guest preacher, Dr. Megan McKenna. Dr. McKenna is a prominent Biblical scholar, theologian, and Roman Catholic lay person. She is the author of a number of books. Dr. McKenna will be leading a diocesan study day on Saturday, Feb. 24th, and will be joining us for worship the following day.

Acolyte Training: Anyone in 3rd grade and older, including adults, is welcome to participate in an Acolyte Training Session on Sunday, February 25th, at 5:30 p.m.

Children & Youth

Confirmation classes are being held the second and fourth Sundays of each month at 5:00 p.m.  All children and youth 5th grade and up (at parent’s discretion) are welcome to attend, even those who are not seeking confirmation.

Nursery Childcare is available during the 10:00 a.m. Sunday service for children ages 3 and younger in the Godly Play Room.

Sunday School classes (preschool – 2nd grade and 3rd – 8th grade) are held on the 1st, 3rd, and 4th Sundays of the month, beginning at 10:00 a.m., the same time as the church service starts; children join their parents in the church in time for communion. On 2nd Sundays children attend church with their parents, either the 10:00 a.m. Holy Eucharist service or the 5:30 p.m. Family Worship Service. When there is a 5th Sunday, children attend church with their parents, with some of the children taking part in leading the service.

Adult Education

Our Lenten Study Series will be held on Wednesday nights during Lent (no class on the Wednesday of Holy Week, March 28th). Our theme will be “Varieties of Prayer.” A soup, salad, and bread supper will be provided. If you would like to help with food, look for a sign-up sheet in the parish hall.

Parish Life

Many thanks to all who attended and made possible our Shrove Tuesday pancakes and beer dinner.

There is now a door bell at the Parish Office entrance to the building. Please ring this if you do not have a key to enter.
