MARCH 18 CONGREGATIONAL UPDATE

Our worship service is cancelled for March 22 and probably will not resume for several weeks.  But we continue to be a church- a worshiping community- that shares love and praises God. To that end, St. Thomas is going old school. We are going to have three opportunities for worship from home using the Book of Common PrayerSee the post on the right for the times and pages.
At the top of this page, under Links of Interest, you can find ways to access a Book of Common Prayer and a Bible (and other things!).
Our diocese has  many opportunities for online worship.  And the Episcopal Church has dedicated a page to resources and prayers for this time in our lives.  It also includes regular updates from our Presiding Bishop, Michael Curry.  You can view that page here.
What can you do during this stressful time?  Pray and love your neighbor.  We all have to do both of these things in new, creative ways.  Make a phone call everyday to someone.  Write an email or a real letter to a person who might be feeling alone or anxious.
The priest can be contacted by email or phone at any time.  Go to the Contact Information tab on this page for details.
