 Everyone is Invited to Celebrate Advent with Saint Nicholas!
Through the centuries many stories and legends have been told of St. Nicholas' life and deeds. These accounts help us understand his extraordinary character and why he is so beloved and revered as protector and helper of those in need.
Join us this Sunday, December 6th after the 9:30am Eucharist as we highlight the story of St. Nicholas - the kind and generous patron saint of children, sailors, the poor and the innocent. The Undercroft will come alive with food and activities including a visit from this notable Bishop of Myra.
Gifts of unwrapped toys will be collected for St. John's Episcopal Hospital.
