  January 29, 2026  Bishop Barker and Canon Easton will join us for worship on Sunday, February 15. Erin Cawiezel, Allie Cawiezel and Janey Sunderland from Saint Francis, as well as Reece Meysenburg from Holy Apostles, will be confirmed that day. Dyllan Coop from Saint Francis will be received. We hope you'll join us to support and celebrate our newly confirmed and received Episcopalians! On February 8, Super Bowl Sunday, Youth Fellowship is pleased to host our own SOAPer Bowl of Caring! We'll collect toiletries so those in need in our valley can know the dignity and comfort of personal hygiene. Items gathered will be distributed to CAPWN and Potter's Wheel. Cash donations are also welcome. I received a few questions regarding the conference I'm attending this week. Forma is "the network for Christian formation in the Episcopal Church and beyond." They are a creative and innovate group, including technologically. For this reason, the conference location varies and changes format from year to year. Some years it's held only via video conference, other years it's held only in-person, and other years it's a hybrid (or combination) of the two. This year is the first in memory I'll be within reasonable driving distance of the in-person venue. (Saint John's Cathedral, Denver) If you'd like to read more about Forma or the conference, I invite you to visit their website at forma.church. As always, please call my cell if there is a pastoral or building emergency. ~Rev.
