Small Group for SINGERS !

Our next meeting is August 25th

at the home of Catherine Way.

 

Are you interested in singing "for fun" ?

A Motet Group has begun meeting approximately every three weeks to sing a capella music together.  If you are interested in participating, please speak to Peter Bumsted or Fr. Eric.

 

The music will be challenging and we recommend this group especially for those who can read music. We'll enjoy time together as well as prayer and refreshments.

ADULT FORUM

"9/11/01 - 9/11/11:

What has changed?

How have you changed?"

Most people remember where they were and what they were doing on September 11, 2001, but what have we learned since then - about our world and about ourselves? You are invited to a very special Adult Forum on Sunday, September 11 at 9:00 am in the Undercroft. We will be having a special discussion regarding this event and the above questions. Please join us for this opportunity for reflection and discussion. 

CHURCH SCHOOL:

Our new year of church school rotation is fast approaching. We will begin classes on Sunday, September 18th. We'd really like to hear from you about our church school program. Please complete and return the Church School Survey that went out by mail at the end of July. (Didn't receive one? Call the church office at 483-6405 and we'll mail you a survey!)  We'd also love to have new teaching assistants this fall. Could you consider helping for one or two rotations? Just three weeks to fall in love with our kids. Give it a try!
