Each week in this series we will watch a short teaching
by Bishop Wright on each of the "five movements of faith"

The Rev'd Colin Brown to be Ordained to the Priesthood
Our beloved Colin Brown is on track to be ordained a priest (God willing) on Saturday, June 27 at 2 pm. This year the ordination will be limited to livestream participation only (please see the link below).
Colin has accepted a call to serve as Associate Rector at St. Martin in the Fields Episcopal Church in Brookhaven. Colin's last Sunday with St. Bede's will be Sunday, July 12. Colin has asked that we not "give" him a going-away gift (although we will sneak in a small gift or two), but instead, anyone would like to support Colin's ministry may make a donation to his discretionary fund. If you would like to contribute to Colin's discretionary fund, you may make out a check to St. Bede's with the designation on the check as "Colin's Discretionary Fund" or you may
make a gift through Realm giving (by clicking here) and choose "Colin Brown's Discretionary Fund" from the drop-down menu. We will forward all of those gifts to St. Martin's for Colin's discretionary fund to support his ministry there with those in need.

Let's Stay Connected
"Stay Connected" has been part of your weekly E-News
during this time in which we are connecting in new and different ways.
This week, "Stay Connected"
moved into its own periodic communication (apart from E-News)
that will be delivered earlier in the week.
We would love for any of our members
to share any personal reflections, poetry, art, or stories of hope
that will keep us connected and lift our spirits.

Vestry Establishes
Community Emergency Assistance Fund
In addition to all of the wonderful ways that the Community Engagement Team is leading us in supporting community ministry partners (locally, churchwide, and globally) during this critical time, the Vestry has established a Community Emergency Assistance Fund to help people within the greater St. Bede's community with food assistance during the current public health crisis. This fund will be administered confidentially by the clergy in a similar way as their normal discretionary funds, but will be used exclusively to help with food assistance during this crisis.
UPDATE: We have distributed around $1,500 in assistance though food and utility support for individuals and families so far during the current public health crisis. The current balance of the fund stands at around $2,000 and new needs continue to present themselves. A dedicated group of members work with Fabio to help identify need and deliver food. Thank you to all who have contributed!
If you have questions about this offering to the greater St. Bede's community or if you are in need of food assistance or know someone who is, please contact either the Rev'd Caroline Magee or the Rev'd Fabio Sotelo.
