I have a grab bag of important topics to cover before we enter into the excitement of this weekend's Building Consecration and First Sunday in the space.

Announcing Table Groups
St Paul’s House of Formation: Lex orandi, lex credendi, lex vivendi
Two years ago, a ragtag group of Restorationites signed up for Saint Paul’s House of Formation, a two year course on liturgy, theology, scripture, and the Anglican tradition taught by Canon Theologian Stephen Gauthier.
Call to Prayer and Action for Afghanistan and Haiti
Location Change for Sunday, Aug 22
Rain Plan for Aug 8: Parkway Theater
Due to rain throughout Saturday and into Sunday morning, we are moving our Sunday Worship on August 8th back to the Parkway Theater. We’re so grateful for the Parkway’s openness for us to return on such short notice! There are a few other events and details that are impacted by this, though. Read on for more information.
Send Us Now Into the World in Peace
This is an excerpt of this past Sunday’s sermon (re-formatted for the journal) that discusses how the liturgy of the Eucharist transforms our imagination for the Church to embody a “culture of peace” by the practice of “eating” a shared meal.
The lectionary passages from Sunday, July 18th, 2021 (Year B) were Ephesians 2:11-22 and Mark 6:30-44. From these readings, the sermon sought to explore how the themes of “peace” and “eating” are brought together in the Eucharist.
Prayer Vigil for our City
Several members of our community will be gathering alongside other Christian brothers and sisters for a prayer vigil and demonstration this evening at North Memorial Hospital at 6pm.
