FATHER MARK’S ANNOUNCEMENTS

  1. If you are interested in joining our Advent Study, please act today and use this link to sign-up https://saintf.breezechms.com/form/c6ee033180 and purchase the book “Love Came Down” by Christopher Webber wherever you get books. The daily meditations begin on the first day of Advent Nov 28, so we will hit the ground running at our first meeting Thursday Dec 2 at 6:00 P.M. discussing the prior week’s readings. I am very excited to share this Advent work with you. After you sign-up I’ll send a link to the Zoom meeting. 
  2. I am so delighted to share with you that once again you responded beyond generously to our 2021-2 Pledge Drive! The total pledged in 86 individual pledges was $212,772, on par with the last few years and exceeding our expectations for the campaign in a year of transition. This reflects the deep faith and commitment of every member of the parish, and you can be very proud of the work you are doing to support and grow your ministry. I have no doubt God will continue to bless and use this church to change lives for generations to come. This really is quite and extraordinary place. 
  3. Due to the holiday, there will be church (obviously) but no Sunday School classes this weekend. I do hope you all have a tremendous Thanksgiving Day, and that you are at peace and charity with your loved ones and whoever you share your moments and memories with. Let’s be the face of Christ in the world this week.
