Old Donation Episcopal Church

Ninth Sunday after Pentecost

Weekly Chimes
Hello Friends!
 
We've been shipwrecked on this island called Old Donation! It has been quite a VBS week around here, full of bustle and activity as 70 children and their teen and adult helpers have been filling the campus with joyful noise and fun, navigating island terrain after our ship crashed ashore. Keep us in your prayers the rest of the week as we close out what has been quite an eventful Vacation Bible School.
 
There is nothing happening tonight, so feel free to just stay home. The big thing going on this week is everything VBS!
 
Sunday is going to be a particularly special day for me, as I am going to baptize our baby Leia. And, with Bill Waide as our Senior Warden to lead, you all will be able to ask the opening Examination questions so that I can answer with Ben and Leia's godparents. I've done a number of baptisms now, but none that I've been as excited for as this one! I will be preaching and presiding at 10:00 in the historic church, and Bob will be at 8:00, the Gathering, and Sundays@5. You won't see me around next week, as I'll be taking some time off to spend with our dearest friends, but I'll be back next Sunday!
 
Meanwhile, don't forget to sign up for our Annual Beach Eucharist - information below! 
 
In Christ,
