This is a trial, and so it will most likely change over time. The Youth Group is unchanged, except for eating with the rest of the Parish at the potluck on the first Tuesday of every month. OCIA will now be meeting on Tuesday evenings ...

Take this as an encouragement. When people fall ill or cannot get out and about, visit and pray with them, and let me know that I may also see them.

“For I was hungry, and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave Me drink, a stranger and you welcomed Me, naked and you clothed Me…” I want to provide some practical ways of serving based on…

Let’s go to more funerals!

Looking at your own life and reflecting on how these gifts are either present or lacking gives valuable insight into how God is present in your life.

So why do we keep doing this? Why does it seem that Christmas never sticks? Why does it seem like the arrival of Christ and the change that Christ's Advent brings is never lasting?

Lord, my God, teach my heart where and how to seek you, where and how to find you. Lord, if you are not here where shall I look for you in your absence?
