PARISH LIFE ANNOUNCEMENTS
Parish Breakfast. We will have a special parish breakfast on Sunday, March 7th. All are encouraged to attend to hear an update about our on-going building restoration project.
Sundays in Lent. Throughout Lent we will be discussing The Rev. Christopher Webber's book, A Time to Turn: Anglican Readings for Lent and Easter Week. "For centuries Lent has been a time when Christians stop and take stock of their lives. It is a time for revisiting the story of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. It is a time of focusing on our sinfulness and the need to repent, as well as a season in which we focus on putting aside our luxuries and making sure that others have what they need. All of these themes, and more, are explored in this collection of Anglican readings that begin with Ash Wednesday and end on the Saturday of Easter Week. ...A Time to Turn draws on the best sermons, books, poems, and hymns of Anglican writers throughout the centuries, with a reading for each day, followed by the brief suggestion for focusing the reader's meditations." Join Fr. Rob for discussion and reflection on this book, Sunday mornings from 11:30am to Noon. Speak to Fr. Rob to purchase a copy of this book for $10.
