This Sunday, December 20 ~
The Canon Lynn Carter-Edmands will be preaching at all 3 services
Canon Carter-Edmands is the Canon for Transitions in Ministry for the Diocese and will be guiding Calvary through the process of identifying a new rector.
There will be a Q&A with Canon Carter-Edmonds after each of the services this Sunday. Please come prepared with questions.
If any additional questions arise, please feel free to call our Senior Warden, Daren Grayton.
Fr. Wilson Willard is our Priest in Charge until an interim priest is chosen. The interim will serve until a new rector is called.
(Because of the Q&A following the services, we ask especially that those who wish to attend the notoriously late
9:30 service arrive with the intent to begin on time. Thank you!)
Dave Meyer will be delivering the Lighthouse gifts this Sunday, and there are two tags left (both include a large girl's coat)!
If you want to give a gift to a child or teen in need, please stop by Calvary this week to pick up the last tags.
