Letters from Our Episcopal Leaders

As we continue to process the results of the 2024 election, with joy, trepidation, exhaustion, or any other valid emotion, please take the time to read the perspectives of some of our Episcopal leaders which center us in our mission as Jesus followers in the world: 



Letter from our Connecticut Bishops regarding the 2024 U.S. Election (November 5)

Letter from Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe on the U.S. presidential election (November 6)

Together in Christ: A Letter from the President of the House of Deputies, Julia Ayala Harris (November 6)

A NEW FORMATION SERIES STARTED ON SUNDAY NOVEMBER 10!

We started a new formation series on Sunday, November 10, on the Sermon on the Mount or the Beatitudes. We use "Following the Call: Living the Sermon on the Mount Together," edited by Charles E. Moore, as a springboard for our discussions. "Following the Call" is a collection of short meditations on various aspects of the Beatitudes by a range of theologians and Christian thinkers such writers as Augustine St. Francis of Assissi, Henri Nouen, Dorothy Sayers, Dorothy Day, Meister Eckhart, Soren Kierkegaard, and many others. 

We are currently scheduled for November 17 and December 8, and will decide at that point as a group if we'd like to continue with this series.

We hope you can join us, even if you did not attend the first discussion.

Thanksgiving at Camp Washington!

Join us for a Thanksgiving Celebration with delicious food and the exceptional hospitality you have come to expect at Camp Washington.

Join us for one night, two, or just for Thanksgiving day and dinner. Come with family, friends, or come alone and make new friends. Relax by the fire, participate in worship, go for a hike, do a puzzle, read a book, or just simply be. Leave the holiday stress behind.

Come away to Camp Washington and begin a new Thanksgiving tradition.

The CT Coalition to End Homelessness and the NW CAN (Coordinated Access Network) are hosting a round-table conversation focused on addressing homelessness in our greater community.
