Please join us for worship this Sunday at 8:30 or 10:30 a.m. Children's Chapel for preschool age children through grade 5, takes place during the first half of the 10:30 a.m. service.
Throughout the Sundays of Lent, a Meditative Eucharist will be offered at 7:30 pm. Intended as a spiritual aide to cultivate a reflective Lent, these services will incorporate candlelight in a darkened atmosphere, meditative music, ample silence, a brief mystical reflection, communal prayers and a contemplative Eucharist. The service will last approximately 35 to 40 minutes. Though Christian in ethos, and certainly fulfilling for Christian piety, this service will prove hospitable to those who define themselves as "spiritual but not religious." If you know anyone who would appreciate a spiritual experience in a meditative atmosphere, please invite them to join us.
Rector's Forum - Sunday, March 30. In a changing World should the Episcopal Church change? Come and join us immediately following the 10:30 a.m. Sunday Eucharist on March 30th to discuss the future of the church. There is declining participation in all denominations of the Christian church, including the Episcopal Church. However, there seems to be a growing global emergence of many people seeking "Spirituality without Religion." Are there ways for Saint Patrick's to survive or even thrive in such a changing environment? Please join us for just 45 minutes to discuss this vitally important topic.
