Lenten Evening Prayer
Each Sunday evening of Lent at 6:30 p.m. we will pray a form of evening prayer based on the Taize tradition. This prayer form is borrowed from a famous interdenominational monastery in France and is characterized by a blending of song, scripture and silence. We encourage you to try it at least once. The total prayer service takes about 30 minutes. All are welcome.
Soup and Scripture
Lent will begin on March 1. We will again hold the Wednesday evening “Soup and Scripture” sessions that have proven to be very popular.
This year the six sessions will be led by Fr. Dennis and will commence on Wednesday March 8 in the Rectory Meeting Room.
We will use the same series used in the past. It is excellent and designed for both beginners and those with some background in the scriptures. This year our focus will be on Acts, The Good News of The Holy Spirit.
Since the sessions will again take place in the rectory meeting room, we are limited to 30 participants. If you wish to enroll or have questions, please call the rectory so that your name can be included. Since we need to order discussion booklets, please call the rectory soon at 366-1750.
The soup supper will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the rectory meeting room (basement).The scripture discussion starts at 7 p.m. and lasts an hour. You may pay for the booklet at class on Wednesday, March 8th.
