Lenten Program:
Lent invites us to slow down and reflect on our
relationship with God. One way we will do this at
St. James will be with an Evening Prayer service,
to be held each Wednesday during Lent at 6:15.
Arrive at 5:30 to break bread with us, stay
afterwards for fellowship and study opportunities
at 7pm. Please join us!
Soroti Well Project:
Once again we at St. James’ are being called on to
“take something on” for Lent as opposed to
giving something up. The well we provided for
Soroti is producing 2,000 liters of CLEAN water
per hour for 900 people. We promised them one
more well so this Lent please remember our
friends in Soroti. Check out the pictures and
letters from them which are on the poster in the
parish hall.
Meditation Series:
Due to many requests, Gerry Eitner will be leading
another meditation series -- just in time for Lent!
The six-week series, covering various
approaches to meditation, will be held on
Friday evenings, from 7- 8 pm, in the chapel. It will
begin on Friday February 19th and run until Friday
March 26th. Please RSVP to Nancy at the church
office.
