A Letter from Brandon Nonnemaker |

Resurrection family,
I am now halfway through seminary studies and wanted to send a note updating you on happenings here in Alexandria:
Fletcher and Finley have adjusted well, have made some wonderful friends, and are loving second grade in Alexandria City Public Schools. We’re pleased that they have transitioned to in-person learning this year. The boys played soccer last year and are starting swim classes next week!
Mallory is the Director of Theatre at Episcopal High School (which is adjacent to the seminary campus). In addition to directing and teaching theatre fundamentals, she is also teaching courses in American Drama and playwriting. Working with the English department and planning experiential learning in Washington, DC suits Mallory well.
VTS has also transitioned to in-person learning this year—in many ways it feels like another first year! My course of study has included courses in biblical studies, church and witness, practical theology, and worship. I have found particular interest in biblical study and biblical Greek. I plan to round out my year-long study of Greek with a year of Hebrew. I’m also eager to bring the knowledge of these courses to further study of church history and preaching.
This past summer I completed a Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) internship at Charles George VA Medical Center in Asheville, NC. And this fall I began my contextual ministry internship with St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Arlington, VA. I will continue learning and growing with the people of St. Andrew’s until I graduate in the spring of 2023.
We're forever grateful for your prayers and gifts (books and monetary contributions). It was certainly a blessing to get to visit and sing with the choir while we were in town last week! Mallory, the boys, and I think about you all often and pray for your regularly.
Happy New Year!
Brandon

We are grateful for the beautiful flower arrangements at the altar each Sunday. These arrangements are coordinated by the Parish Flower Guild and funded by donations in memorial, honor, or thanksgiving for a life event or friends and relatives of Resurrection. The cost for both flower arrangements is $75. Sunday flowers may be shared. Your gift of flowers will be acknowledged in the Sunday service bulletin.
