Tomorrow, Thursday, January 6 - 6:30 pm
Celebrate this principal feast of the Church--Christ's revelation to the nations!-- with an intimate celebration of Holy Eucharist. We'll use our prayer books and hymnals more instead of a bulletin (Mo. Jenna and Valerie will walk us through it!) and we'll hear the Epiphany Proclamation (an old tradition of announcing the dates of Easter and the moveable feasts), receive blessed chalk with which to do a traditional Epiphany home blessing, and then share King Cake outside (will you get the good luck baby Jesus in your slice?) and have a fire to burn our Christmas greenery, so bring a branch from your tree or some cuttings of pine or holly (or any greenery!) from your yard.

Would you like to help administer the Eucharist--the body of blood of Christ-- to the faithful during church: a beautiful opportunity to grow closer to our Lord and to this parish community.
No qualifications except a love of Jesus and a desire to be close to him.

A Season of Stewardship
It is not too late to plant!
|
|
“I planted, Apollos watered, and God gave the growth.” (I Corinthians 6:3). Even though St. Benedict’s stewardship season is coming to an end, God’s abundant love for us never ends. He is always our faithful steward. If you haven’t had an opportunity to make your pledge for the coming year, it is not too late. God’s word tells us that as we plant and water, he will give growth to St. Benedict’s. To make your pledge please use the button below.

St. B's needs lectors (readers) and intercessors (lead the prayers of the people) on Sunday mornings. It's so important that the assembly hears God's word read by people of all ages, genders, ethnicities, voices... reflecting the diversity of the body of Christ. This is a great ministry for folks looking to get more involved! Email Saralee Parker with any questions. |

Now that we are back in church for services please start wearing you name tag. If you don't have a name tag please contact Monty at monty@mysaintb.org to request a new one. Wearing name tags really is a help for Mo. Jenna and for each of us as we welcome new parishioners and visitors and maybe refresh our memories on old friends. |

Be a part of making the nave beautiful for online worship. The Flower Guild is looking for volunteers to help with arranging flowers for the nave every week. If interested, contact Beth Tyler.
