This is the first Sunday in Lent. We make a few changes to the liturgy during the season of Lent. There is a collection of Lenten meditation books for adults and children to use at home and there are also mite boxes available for your Lenten offerings.
The Bishop's Committee will meet this week after the service and Sunday school will also meet.
Our parish is sponsoring a team for the WARM Bowl-a-thon (go to the WARM link under the Ministries tab for more information.) Our team is the Tom-Katz. If you would like to be on the team or if you would like to make a donation to sponsor the team, speak to the vicar.
The choir will rehearse at 8:15 on Sunday morning. A few more tenor voices are needed. No experience necessary!
The Lenten Book group will begin on Wed., Mar 16 at 6pm. See the column to the right for more information.
Remember to turn your clocks ahead an hour on Sat. night
