FELLOWSHIP: 

Dear Friends in Christ,

      This is to remind you that this Sunday, May 17 we begin our trial format for fellowship after worship on the third Sundays of each month. Your vestry and I decided that rather than having a meal, we would simply have coffee and donuts on the third Sundays, as we did when we had our ministry fair last fall.

     The reasons for this are many. We have noticed that newcomers and visitors are reluctant to join us for our meals, a number of parishioners rarely if ever participate, and that most of us tend to sit with the same people each time. It is our hope that this new format will allow us to have greater fellowship with one another and get to know each other better.

We are going to try this for the next three months. After that the vestry will reflect and make a decision for the future.

RICE & BEANS MINISTRY​

Please donate food staples or funds (denote “Rice and Beans” on memo line) prior to food distributions every third Saturday. The next distribution will be 6/21/2025.  Thanks in advance! We are also collecting gently used coats and blankets for the winter months. If you have these please place them in the parish hall.

For More information from Gail Brown (850-496-8655).

The Episcopal Diocese of the Central Gulf Coast

DEVELOPING LITURGICAL LAY LEADERS IN OUR CONGREGATIONS

​

Why?

By virtue of our baptism, we are all Christian ministers. The Holy Spirit authorizes and empowers every baptized person to carry on various ministries for the good of and on behalf of the congregation. For some Christians, this means being called to ordained ministry. For most of us, this means we become actively involved in lay ministry or ministries.

Discerning and Identifying People seeking to increase their participation in the life of their local congregation may be interested in pursuing the licensing process for certain ministries. The priest-in-charge (or in churches without a priest in-charge, the Senior Warden) may complete this discernment by conversations with members of the congregation, or a congregational discernment team may be chosen to facilitate this process. Congregations are encouraged to seek licensed ministers that reflects the diversity of membership in the congregation.

 

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED THE OFFICE HAS THE APPLICATION FORMS YOU NEED!
