Join us outdoors this Sunday at 10am as we celebrate Birthdays and Anniversaries!

This Sunday we welcome guest priest Father David Laquintano while Father Todd is on vacation.

Join us for Adult Formation Wednesday night (7pm, via Zoom), as Jonathan Wilson leads in an exploration of “Seeing Dead People: Historical Controversies of the Christian Faith.”

History shapes how Christians live and understand ourselves. But it can be controversial. And because there’s so much of it, many people find history overwhelming … or just really boring. 

In this interactive formation series, we’ll demystify history from a Christian perspective. We will look at how historians actually do their work and why there’s so much disagreement about the past. We will reflect on how history can inform our spiritual practices. And we’ll develop some practical strategies for finding reliable works of history that you’ll actually enjoy. 

 This down-to-earth online workshop, facilitated by Jonathan Wilson, is recommended for history enthusiasts, history non-enthusiasts, readers of historical fiction, students, genealogists, social activists, or anyone else who wants to see the past from a fresh perspective.

Wednesday Eucharist is taking a break in the month of July.
