Sixth Sunday after the Epiphany
O God, the strength of all who put their trust in you:
Mercifully accept our prayers; and because in our weakness
we can do nothing good without you, give us the help of your
grace, that in keeping your commandments we may please
you both in will and deed; through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever.
Amen.

We are also pleased to offer RENEWAL 2019 t-shirts! The shirts are 100% cotton, royal blue, available in adult and youth sizes, and also a women's style. The shirt features a 3-color print of the RENEWAL 2019 taro logo on the front, and a listing of our churches on the back. The cost is only $16!
You may choose to pick up your shirt at the RENEWAL 2019 conference, or for an added fee, have it shipped directly to you.
Deadline to place your order is February 28, 2019, and those selecting direct shipping should receive it by March 18.
So get ready for a weekend of reconciliation, inspiration and revitalization, and greet our Presiding Bishop with a sea of red and blue, the colors of our Episcopal shield!

From Bishop Robert Fitzpatrick:
DIOCESAN BIBLE STUDY TO PREPARE FOR THE PRESIDING BISHOP'S VISIT TO THE DIOCESE
|
...I pray this will be a time of renewal in the Diocese. To prepare for the Presiding Bishop's visit, I invite all members of the Diocese to prepare for a time of prayer and study of Scripture. I specifically want us to study and pray through the Gospel of Matthew from Monday, October 15, 2018, through Thursday, March 21, 2019.
