Wednesday 11:00 am — 1:00 pm
Silent Prayer Vigil in the church
All are welcome to kneel and silently pray in the church on Wednesdays, beginning
July 15. Approved by our bishop, the doors will open at 11:00 am and the last entry is at 1:00 pm, with doors closing at 1:20.
Let's stay healthy together: masks are required, seating is assigned to maximize social distancing (and, when possible, closest to where you customarily sit), and everyone is encouraged to keep their visit under 30 minutes to limit potential exposure time.
Since Prayer Books have been removed from the pews during this time, please bring your own devotional materials or access them on your smart phone or device from the links provided in this email.
The Rev. Genevieve Razim is also available for socially-distanced pastoral conversations. Please either call the church office or let the usher know upon check-in that you would like to visit with her.
"I was glad when they said to me, let us go into the house of the LORD." Psalm 122:1

Living Compass: Weekly Words of Wellness.
Living Compass focuses on being well so that we can be well to love and serve our neighbor. We can’t pour from an empty cup, and so we need to love and care for ourselves so that we can love and care for our neighbor. It has been said that, “Hurt people, hurt people.” We know this to be true. We also know it to be true that, “Healed people, heal people.”

Order of St. Luke
Rejoice Plan: In the Morning
This is the day the Lord has made;
I shall rejoice and be glad in it.
Affirmations:
- God has a plan for this day -- and this plan includes us. We praise you and thank you.
- We are part of the kingdom of heaven, in the process of unfolding.
- As a child of God: We appreciate ourselves as your creation. We do not put ourselves down in any way. We love people. We forgive those who hurt us. Forgive us, Lord, for the pain we have caused in others. We are in harmony with all living things.
- Through Christ, we receive the power to do all things. Thank you, Lord, for the strength to live this day.
- We accept Christ's gift of abundant life in each of us today: health in body, mind, and spirit; success with personal relationships; inspiration for creative endeavors, especially for projects we are now undertaking.
Praise to You, Lord Christ!
I shall go on my way rejoicing!

Prayer for the Parish
(
Book of Common Prayer
, p. 817)
Almighty and everliving God, ruler of all things in heaven and earth, hear our prayers for this parish family. Strengthen the faithful, arouse the careless, and restore the penitent. Grant us all things necessary for our common life, and bring us all to be of one heart and mind within your holy Church; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
