Top Ten Reasons To Love Being Episcopalian

10. Anglican Aerobics are good for you …. sit-stand-kneel, sit-stand-kneel, sit-stand-kneel.
9. We get to drink real wine at church …. even on Sunday.
8. Not only can Episcopal women wear pants … they can be Deacons, Priests and Bishops. (and now, Presiding Bishops! – ed.)
7. We "proselytize" by serving our fellow man, not by assaulting him on the street corner and telling him that he is bound for hell.
6. You don't need a life guard on duty to be baptized … a small measuring cup will do. (just wait until the first adult baptism at St Nicholas!)
5. Our Bishops are real people … they will sit on the ground and play "duck-duck-goose" with the kids at camp. (Diocese of Central PA)
4. We "respect the dignity of ALL human beings" be they black, white, gay, or straight.
3. Our National Cathedral has a very cool Darth Vader gargoyle .
2. There has never been an "Episcopal Inquisition" …. God gave you a brain – we encourage you to use it.
1. Scripture … Tradition … and …. REASON !!!! Need I say more ?? – MOMUS OPERANDI

Labyrinth Walk at St Nicholas

St Nicholas hosts a Labyrinth Walk every third Friday of the month. If you're interested in exploring this ancient tool for meditation and prayer, arrive any time between 7pm and 9pm. It takes about 20 minutes to walk the labyrinth, "with all deliberate speed." Take time off from your busy world and find the way within.
