ERIN’S EPISTLETTES
  • Our discussion on the meaning of worship will take place during coffee hour following Eucharist this Sunday, October 9. To clarify, this will not be a duplication of the questions on the survey. Instead, it will be an expansion of them. I hope it will provide an opportunity to add breadth and depth to our thinking about worship -- its meaning, and why we do it. 
  • Your initial response to the opening of our worship survey was strong. I'm pleased to report over fifty submissions as of this writing (on Tuesday afternoon). Thank you to those who participated so far! The survey will remain open until Thursday, October 20. It can be accessed online here, or paper copies are available in the narthex. Let the office know if you need a copy mailed to you. 
  • In honor of our patron saint, Francis, and his love for all of God's creatures, my weekly cartoons this month will have an animal theme. I hope you enjoy the first. ​
