Jesus Changes Everything

A study of Stanley Hauerwas’s Jesus Changes Everything: A New World Made Possible.

Begins Wednesday, February 25, 2026, 6:00 PM

Amazon Description:

"...How can we make the gospel central to our lives?

For decades, Stanley Hauerwas has been provoking Christians with his insistence that if they would only follow their Master, it would impact all areas of life, from the personal to the societal.

To order the book from Amazon, click here

The lanky Texan whom Time magazine dubbed “America’s theologian” for his zinging insights into today’s ethical questions says Christians should stop bemoaning their loss of cultural and political power and instead welcome their status as outsiders and embrace the radical alternative Jesus has had in mind for them all along.

These accessible readings selected from Hauerwas’s seminal books will introduce a timely, prophetic voice to another generation of followers of Jesus tired of religion as usual..."

Volunteers Needed – John Overington Celebration of Life Reception

St. Mary’s Guild is reaching out to the congregation for help with the Celebration of Life service and reception for John Overington. We expect over 200 people to attend.

We are asking for help in two ways:

Volunteers to assist with reception setup, help during the reception, and cleanup afterward
Food contributions, specifically: Bite-sized desserts (cookies, brownies, bars, etc.) & Stuffed/deviled eggs

Many hands make small jobs, and if several people each bring a “normal-sized” contribution, we will have more than enough to serve this large group.

If you are able to help or would like more details, please contact:

Cathy Ruley

📞 410-302-4036

✉️ cathyruley@comcast.net

Thank you in advance for supporting the Overington family and our church family during this sad time.

🌟 Unity Campaign: Support Norborne & Our Local Ministries

We’re excited to share that Norborne Pre School and Daycare Center, a ministry right here at Trinity, is participating in the Unity Campaign hosted by the United Way of the Eastern Panhandle.

From March 1–15, you can support Norborne and other local nonprofits close to our Trinity family’s heart, including Faith Community Coalition for the Homeless, Faith Feeding Freedom, and CCAP/Loaves & Fishes.

✔️ 100% of your donation goes directly to the agency you choose

✔️ Incentive funds help stretch your gift even further

Let’s come together to support the ministries serving our children and neighbors.

A Heartfelt Thank You!

St. Mary’s Guild extends our sincere thanks to our entire church family for the incredible support of the Pete Dufourny Memorial Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper.

Because of you, the evening was a wonderful success!

Thank you to those who:

Volunteered your time before, during, and after the event
Donated supplies and ingredients
Provided financial support
Came out to enjoy the supper and bring your families
And most importantly, kept this event in your prayers

It truly was an “all hands on deck” effort, and your generosity, fellowship, and servant hearts made the night meaningful and joyful for everyone.

We are so grateful to be part of such a caring and committed congregation. Your support allows St. Mary’s Guild to continue its ministries and outreach throughout the year.

With heartfelt appreciation,

St. Mary’s Guild
