Message from the Rector

This Sunday is a special day in the life of our parish as we celebrate Youth Sunday. Our young people will take on active roles in our worship service, reading the lessons and leading the prayers of the people. We are especially blessed to have Aeowyn Fields, a graduating high school senior, as our guest preacher. Her message is sure to inspire us all.

In addition to celebrating Youth Sunday, we will take a moment to recognize all those graduating from high school and college. This milestone is a significant achievement, and we are proud of each of our graduates. Let us join in prayer and support as they embark on their next journeys.

This Sunday will also be bittersweet as we bid farewell to the McDonald family—Kelly, Patrick, Katie, Vivienne, and Watson. They have been a cherished part of our community, and while we will miss them dearly, we send them off with our blessings and love as they move to Georgia. Please join us for a special send-off during the service.

As a reminder, next Sunday, June 9th, we will have a joint worship service at 9am, followed by a visioning conversation in the parish hall. This will be an important time for us to come together and discuss our past stories and callings, and use our holy imagination to think and pray about what God may be calling us to in the future.

May we gather this Sunday with hearts full of gratitude and anticipation for all the ways God is moving in and through our youth, our graduates, and our entire parish family.

Using the curriculum, Echo the Story, which is an overview of the Bible, from creation to the formation of the church, each week we will experience the biblical narrative through storytelling, creative reflection, and dialogue.

All are welcome to join. Our time will begin in the Heritage Room (upstairs parish hall) all together to watch a short video that introduces the theme for the week, and then the youth will break off into the Sunday School room for their own discussion led by Father Andrew, while the adults will stay in the Heritage Room and have a facilitated discussion with many different leaders throughout the summer.

Project Spudnik's next work sessions are from 10 AM to noon, June 8 and 22.  We hope you can join us as we play in the dirt to make things grow. Check out our new high beds, perfect spots to garden for those who can want to roll up in their wheel chairs or need to use a walker.

As always, youth volunteers receive community service credit for their work in the garden, as all produce grown is given to area food banks. Master Gardener Mimi Miller (millerfam1976@verizon.net) can answer any questions you may have about Project Spudnik.
