CHURCH BY THE POND
By Nancy Jacobs, Lay Coordinator
April 9, 2022
We have begun Holy Week at Church By The Pond. Today's service was "Palm Saturday." Our plan was to gather and march in procession with our palms but the heavy rains and wind made the procession a bit too complicated.
Rev. Taylor Albright was today's celebrant. He blessed palms for twenty congregants and led us in reciting "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace and glory in the highest heaven!
Today's Gospel reading is a sort of preamble to Holy Week. We see Jesus entering Jerusalem and see his many devotees. Father Taylor's reflection focused on "the rest of the story." Those devotees turn quickly against Jesus, even his own disciples' focus is worrisome to Jesus, the rulers of the Roman Empire have no concept of Jesus's purpose. Father Taylor explained that there will be suffering before the glory that is Easter.
Trinity Episcopal Church, Tariffville provided bagged lunches for our 18 lunch guests this afternoon.

CHURCH BY THE POND
By Nancy Jacobs, Lay Coordinator
April 16, 2022
Today was our celebration of Easter at Church By The Pond! Rev. D Littlepage led our congregation of twenty in Bushnell Park as we honored, prayed and shared the joy that is the resurrection of Christ.
Rev. D's Gospel reflection focused on the willingness to dwell in Jesus' death and to bear witness to his resurrection. Some disciples were reluctant to enter his tomb, some entered and quickly left, but Mary Magdalene stayed to mourn and was blessed to bear witness. When we are struggling we should be free to express our sadness but know that Christ is there with us.
Prayers were offered in thanksgiving, for God's help in reconciliation and in peace, and for those struggling with their health.
Trinity Episcopal Church, Hartford provided bagged lunches and socks for our twenty-three guests this afternoon. Our guests were fortunate to receive multiple lunches today.

Christ Church Cathedral serves the entire Episcopal Church in Connecticut community for the good of the whole, and is the seat of the bishops. It is "our cathedral." Our Cathedral hosts four congregations in one worshiping community. It's not a parish, as its role is unique in the diocese (see 2015 task force report & resolution). Cathedral leaders wish to remind all Episcopalians in CT that by virtue of their membership in a parish, they are members of our Cathedral. All are welcome at any time, and in particular, invited to these events . | | | | |
