Two thumbs up. Our B & G committee makes an initial assessment, & then Fr. Muir applies the East NC "spit test" to our first shipment of slate to determine what color they really are. All OK. Let the roofing begin! |

Opening our Prayer Book - Adult Christian Formation,
Sunday, 9:30-10:30
AM
, Berlin Room, Clergy led
The Book of Common Prayer is not just another book nor simply a collection of prayers... it is a bold expression of how Episcopalians envision God and a means for shaping and renewing the entirety of our Christian lives. We will discuss the full range of resources in the BCP and how to use them. If you have your own BCP, bring it; if not, we will have copies for your use; in either event, bring your curiosity and the questions you always have wanted to ask about the BCP, our prayers, and liturgy.
