Sunday, February 13, immediately following the 10am service

Canon Randall Warren of the diocesan staff will be at St. Nicholas on Sunday, February 13 to discuss with the parish the next steps toward assuring ongoing ordained leadership for St. Nicholas. He wants to hear from everyone in the parish about their hopes and desires for future leadership of St. Nicholas and so all are encouraged to join him in conversation immediately following worship that day.

In order for everyone to be able to meet with Canon Warren, there will be no Saturday liturgy Saturday, February 12.

Back in the day Episcopal Church congregations used to organize themselves into Foyers groups small dinner groups to find ways to get to know each other, and maybe to invite someone new into the congregation. These days congregations are looking for new ways to connect. In Hamilton-Wenham Mass. two priests are leveraging their interest in home brewing into a way to build community:

“[The priests] both began the Home Brew Ministry around the premise that a Reverend should build their ministry around what they enjoy, in this case the hobby of home brewing. D’Angelo has been an avid home brewer since his college years.About 25 people gathered at Christ Church in Hamilton on Saturday, Jan. 29 to learn the fine art of home brewing. And it wasn’t all men either – there were women in attendance that enjoyed participating in the process of how to cook the beer and then sampled different brews.‘My wife Naomi was one of the women in attendance,’ Gray said. ‘We had a great time. It was almost like a date afternoon.’”
