News & Notes

Dear Faithful People of Saint Peter's:

 

Congratulations to Vicar Carol Schneider!   Carol has received an appointment to the Chaplain Residency program at Methodist Hospital, Park Slope, Brooklyn for the year beginning September 1, 2014, immediately following her internship year at Saint Peter's.  This is another major step in Carol's goal to serve as a chaplain!  (Carol is preaching at 8:45 and 11:00 this Sunday).

 

This Sunday, the Fourth Sunday of Easter, marks a shift in emphasis from the presence of the crucified and risen Christ - "through the water, at the table, with us now" - to benefits of the risen Christ.  This Sunday has been popularly called "Good Shepherd Sunday." 

  • 8:45 a.m.      Mass:  I will preside and Vicar Carol Schneider will preach
  • 10:00 a.m.   Forum:  Pastor Bill Eschen presents the second of a two-part series: The Relationship between the Gospel and Psychotherapy
  • 11:00 a.m.   Mass:  I will preside and Vicar Carol Schneider will preach
  • 12:30 p.m.   Brunch prepared by  John Troccoli and William Roy
  • 1:30 p.m.    Misa:  Pastor Arias will preside and preach
  • 5:00 p.m.   Jazz Vespers:  Pastor Stahler will preside and preach with musicians Nadje Noordhuis Quartet

 

Next Sunday, May 18, is the Fifth Sunday of Easter and the crucified risen Christ proclaims "I am the way, the truth and the life" while Peter proclaims our indelible baptismal identity as "God's own people so that we may proclaim God's mighty acts."  That's a powerful vocation to fulfill.

  • 8:45 a.m.      Mass:  I will preside and preach
  • 10:00 a.m.   Forum:  Pastor Jonathan Linman, Assistant to Bishop Rimbo for Formation, will lead us in "Seeing Jesus:  Exploring Images and Our Imaginations"
  • 11:00 a.m.   Mass: Pastor Stahler will preside and I will preach
  • 12:30 p.m.   Brunch by Tracy Christensen and Watson Bosler
  • 1:15 p.m.     Fiction Book discussion The Infatuations, by Javier Marias in 3rd floor link
  • 1:30 p.m.    Misa:  Pastor Arias will preside and preach
  • 5:00 p.m.    Jazz Vespers:  Vicar Carol Schneider will preach and preside at with musicians Kate McGarry, voice and Keith Ganz, guitar

LOST AND FOUND
Did you take home the wrong coat last weekend?  The coat in question is tan, has elastic cuffs and waist, two slash pockets on each side (the outer one on each side has a zipper), and a breast pocket inside.  The fabric is soft like microfiber.  A similar coat is still on the rack.  If you possess the mis-appropriated coat, please return it to the rack where you found it.
