Youth Confirmation

Meets in the Undercroft. All youth in 7th and 8th grade or who are at least 12 years of age are invited to join the 2018 Confirmation Class for a spirit-filled journey centered around worship, learning, service, witness and fellowship. There will be loads of prayerful dialogue, laughter and fun, too! Confirmation completes our baptism and is the sacramental rite in which we express a mature commitment to Christ, culminating with the laying on of hands by the bishop. Youth Confirmation classes are held on Sundays at 9 – 10:15 a.m. from Sept. to May, and include a pilgrimage to The Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City. Contact Teri Quinn Gray (tquinngray@verizon.net) and Bob Rys (bobrys05@gmail.com) for more information.

“All Creatures Great and Small” – Blessings of the Animals on St. Francis Day -- On Sunday, October 8 at 4:00 p.m. we remember and honor the life and ministry of Francis of Assisi, and will celebrate this feast day with our annual Blessing of the Animals. We will offer a brief liturgy with prayers and blessings for your special furry, or slimy, family members OUTSIDE in the The Grove, weather permitting! If weather is NOT permitting, we’ll move into the Great Hall. On this day at our morning worship services we will bless all those special critters in our life of the stuffed animal variety.
