We Are Passing the Plate

St. Benedict's worship is slowly but undeniably getting back towards "normal" as COVID rates continue to fall, vaccinations increase, and as the Bishop and CDC have loosened restrictions. We've got acolytes, processions, ushers, and we are able to pass the plate again: for the sake of developing our own generosity and gratitude, and for the financial life of the church. Please bring your offerings, cash or check, and place them in the plate. One more small step in our regathering for church.

Treasurer's Report

Holy Baptism

Baptism is full initiation, by water and the Holy Spirit, into Christ's body the church. People of all ages are baptized at St. Benedict's. If you desire Holy Baptism for you or your child, or are even just curious about baptism, please reach out to Mo. Jenna. I am trying to get a sense of how many folks might be desiring baptism this Eastertide and beyond.

A reminder to all parishioners that St. Benedict's is committed to the various care needs of its member families. A dedicated group of volunteers are continuing to offer their time to serve our church community within various pastoral care capacities, including prayer requests, transportation, meal delivery, Eucharistic visits with Diocesan-approved safe protocols, and more. Mo. Jenna is also readily available for prayers, calls and/or visits for those in need.
