Stewardship Moments

During Stewardship season we will have three stewardship talks during the Sunday service called “Moments of Abundance”. This weeks “Moment of Abundance” is brought to you by Andrew Tomlinson.

Here is a little more about Andrew:

A resident of Bolton Hill since 2020, Andrew lives on the 1300 block of Bolton St. with his wife Alyssa. You can often see Andrew and Alyssa walking their dog Hazel in the neighborhood or out on regular runs. Andrew is a lifelong Episcopalian originally baptized in Michigan and he and Alyssa were married at St. John's Lafayette Square in Washington, DC in 2018. During the day Andrew is a health data lobbyist for the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) advocating on behalf of AHIMA members on issues related to the intersection of technology and healthcare. He is a graduate of the American University in Washington, DC with a degree in print journalism.

Dear Memorial, 

Thank you for your generosity during our guest Afghan family's first month in Baltimore, which has been critical to their integration. At this time, we will remove the previously-shared Amazon list of support items. We will also stop directly bringing groceries to the family, to allow for more privacy and to let them navigate local grocery stores and markets. We will continue to support our guest family by collecting non-perishable items at Memorial Church on Sundays. A labeled plastic bin with a mint green lid (see attached photo) will be available at the back of the sanctuary on Sunday mornings to collect these essential non-perishable items:

If you have further questions about supporting the family, please contact Wendy Yap at [email protected]

Taizé Evening Prayer Service

Every Sunday at 7:00 pm located in the Peace & Justice Chapel

This contemplative service follows the liturgical format of worship used by the Ecumenical monastic Community at Taizé alternating simple chants and scriptural readings with periods of silence. The overarching theme of the Taizé form of worship is reconciliation, across ecumenical, cultural, social, and racial divides. Taizé chants are chanted in multiple languages as an expression of Christian unity, rooted in respect of people’s differences.

Please note that these services are in person only. For questions, please contact John Seeley [email protected] or Barbara Cates [email protected]

Nursery Space is temporarily unavailable

For the time being (until renovations are complete), the nursery is unavailable to children. We look forward to welcoming our children back to the nursery soon!

Two Final Things:

1) Let us see your face! If at all possible, please start a video feed so we can see each other face to face, even across distance.

2) Please mute your feed unless you are speaking. And if you find you are muted, please don’t unmute. And please do respond to the prayers and readings even if you are muted, as we are all doing this together.
