The Feast of Pentecost, Sunday, May 23

Pentecost is a Feast second only to Easter in importance. As always, we’ll read the gospel in as many languages as we can—a sign-up sheet will be available the Sundays before Pentecost. We’ll also be having our traditional and festive Pentecost Picnic, a potluck at Canterbury House. Get in the spirit and plan ahead to wear your favorite “red” outfit or accessory and bring your favorite red foods to share. Hot dogs and red drinks will be provided.

Eat In 2 Help Out Meals a Great Success

Our Eastertide meals in aid of the Millenium Development Goals through Episcopal Relief and Development have raised over $1,600. The cumulative total after this third round is over $6,600. We’re grateful to those who served as hosts—we keep hearing from everyone who attended what fine occasions they were.
