Puerto Rico Disaster Relief Effort
On
October 7th following the 10:00 service, our congregation will welcome Christina Cabrera from Puerto Rico.
She will be visiting with our congregation to discuss ongoing disaster relief efforts in Puerto Rico. Christina will be meeting with the Reverend Canon Rafael Zorrill from the Bishop's office of the Episcopal Diocese of Puerto Rico to discuss and identify specific needs of individuals that the Diocese serves.
This conversation will be shared directly with us during her visit, and we hope that our congregation will be able to identify a project within Puerto Rico that we can support.
We hope that you will stay after the service to meet Christina and learn more about Puerto Rico's ongoing needs!
Recital
4-Hand Organ Recital with Lisa Lewis and Robert Bozeman,

The Book of Daniel will be the next book of the Bible we explore on Wednesday mornings from 9:45 - 11:00, led by Fr. Michael.
There are so many familiar stories in Daniel, but how well do we really know them? What do the apocalyptic prophecies in the second half of Daniel mean?
Come join us, and find out.
