First Sunday Lunch

Sunday, February 2nd

Candlemas is 40 days after Christmas (February 2) and celebrates the presentation of baby Jesus in the temple. While in the temple, a wise man named Simeon held the baby in his arms and said that he would be a light to enlighten the nations (Luke 2:32). It is for this reason that this event is called Candlemas.


Join us Sunday, February 2 following the 10:00 service in the Parish Hall for a family celebration of Candlemas. We will make candles to take home. Contact Mary Lou Crifasi to RSVP.

Join us on Wednesdays at 11 a.m., starting January 8 in the Parish Hall, as we uncover how this timeless story of faith still speaks to us today. All are welcome!

Confirmation Class for Youth

Confirmation classes begin Wednesday, February 5, at 5 p.m. in the Barn! Open to youth in 8th grade and up, this class is an opportunity to explore faith, ask big questions, and prepare to affirm a commitment to Christ. Taught by Ian Anderson and Father Groff, the class meets weekly through the end of May and culminates in the Bishop’s visit in October, when confirmands will be confirmed. After class, students are invited to stay for Youth Group from 6–8 p.m., with dinner provided. For more information or to sign up, please contact the church office.

All donations benefit our Food Pantry.
