10am Eucharist in the Park
Hesse Park, 29301 Hawthorne Blvd, RPV next to the baseball diamond
This year we're hosting an old-fashioned parish picnic (no BBQ unless you bring our own briquets and use one of the Hesse Park grills). Please bring your chairs, blankets, sunblock, your own picnic lunch, and games to share! Pre-filled water balloons or soccer, anyone? 8am Worship will continue in the Chapel as usual.
|
During the rest of August, we will continue to worship outside at 10am with a shorter and more informal service. Our 8am service continues to be held in the Chapel every week, and we will return to the main church for worship on Labor Day. Remember to dress in layers in case it is cool outside.
