We would like to thank this year’s delegates: Tom Baker, Pierce Rucker, Wilson Trice, Michael Smith, Rob Reed, and Willson Craigie. We are also pleased to announce that during the Convention, the Diocese of Virginia passed a resolution honoring the Christian Service of our beloved parishioner Alex Slaughter, of blessed memory.

Read the resolution in full here.

Throughout the week of Thanksgiving please pack a bag full of nutritious food (see suggestions here) and deliver to FeedMore, located at 1601 Rhoadmiller St., 23220.

If you’re interested in any form of House Church, sign up by November 23 using this Google Form.

It’s our hope that in their various forms, these House Churches will provide a space for more connection with one another, rich engagement with the traditions of Advent, and an opportunity to invite friends and neighbors into our worship.

For questions or more information, reach out to Hilary Streever or Blake Singer

This year we are collecting monetary donations from parishioners which we will use to purchase $100 Visa gift cards. Our partners at Peter Paul Development Center will work closely with clients to assess individual needs and will then distribute the Visa gift cards to families and seniors.

Please make your donation by December 7^th: Click here for details.

It's so lovely to get a Christmas card - and these days it's rather rare! Would you be willing to write 10 cards to some fellow parishioners? Wouldn't this be a lovely Advent practice, and guess what - All ages can participate! For information and to volunteer, please email Frances Caldwell .

The Episcopal Church has developed a Christian formation program specifically for youth called Dismantling Racism: A Youth Curriculum.

Mary Beth Abplanalp, Director of Youth Ministry, is now certified to teach this 6-session curriculum designed to help middle and high school youth and their parents have conversations about race, become allies, and build relationships to address systemic racism in their context.
