Candlemas: bring "candles" to be blessed

This Sunday is our annual meeting, it is also the final end of the Christmas and Epiphany season known as the Feast of the Presentation, or Candlemas.

This event is traditionally 40 days after Christmas, celebrating Jesus the Light of the World being publicly presented at the temple.

The theme is light, and for around 1600 years Christians have used this time to bless candles and other sources of light. The point is to remind us of Christ as we work by their light.

If you want to bring candles to be blessed, I will bless them. However, for many today, smartphones have become the candles of our current age. Because of this, if you would like your phone blessed, bring it! Let us seek to sanctify the parts of our life whether they come from medieval times or the space age, we bring all we are and all we do before God."

Collecting soup for CSL

Please bring a contribution of canned or bag soup for donation to the Blue Springs Community Services League. A collection box is located in the narthex for your donations. Go Chiefs!

Adult Education class

Adult Ed resumes on February 6. We will spend around three weeks exploring prayer before beginning another book.

Please click here for a questionnaire to help you reflect on your thoughts on prayer before we begin.

We will look at different forms of prayer, discuss them, and try them. We will seek to gain a new appreciation for how we pray and what prayer is, and even push our horizons of understanding what prayer can be.

Let's see what the Holy Spirit does among us!

Fun for all!

Come one and all and join in some fun games (Mexican Train, card games, bring a game) on Friday February 7 in the undercroft starting at 7:00 pm.

Bring a treat to share, drinks will be provided!
