| New class on Creation Care |
Concerned about the global environmental crisis as a Christian? Or does it feel overblown? Join us for a five-week “pilgrimage” to explore these concerns through the lens of Christ. Led by Morgan Wills, Creation is for Lovers blends lecture, discussion, and insights from theologian Loren Wilkinson’s work. Each session introduces a spiritual practice to deepen faith-driven engagement with Creation care while setting the stage for future practical courses.

On Sunday, March 2, six children completed a course called Sacred Communion and invited family and friends to Family Eucharist service. We studied 5 Scriptures with the hope of expanding our imaginations for the God we meet in the Eucharist – a God who connects us, searches for us, forgives us, and heals us. Blessings upon Louis, Violette, Ellie, Daly, Mai Linh and Seth!

Join us for a Lenten Quiet Day on Saturday, March 29, at 9:00 a.m., led by Sister Hannah Winkler, CSM, a member of the Community of St. Mary, Southern Province, for the past ten years. Reflecting on Jesus' question in Matthew – “Who do you say that I am?”– we will explore how our understanding of God shapes our faith. Through the often-forgotten names of God in the Old Testament, this time of quiet reflection will invite us to deepen our spiritual journey and broaden our connection to the Divine.
