"Established in 2014 from over 200 years of faith in Christ!"
The Last Sunday
after Pentecost
November 26, 2023
The Holy Eucharist: Rite Two
This Sunday is the Last Sunday after Pentecost [Advent's just about her!]. In the first lesson, Deborah, Judge and Prophet over Israel, leads the Israelite Army into a war of Liberation. In the Gospel lesson, Jesus tells what the criteria are going to be at the Last Judgement.
We will hold in-person and live-streamed worship. Our new equipment allows us to live-stream worship this Sunday! Tune in!

Food Pantry Ministry Evolving to Meet Changing Conditions
As the needs of the hungry in our area change, and the best way to help the food pantries we assist changes along with that, we are adjusting how we ask for your support. We will continue gratefully to accept offerings of money from parishioners, but we will be adding an option to make a food donation at the Church as well. Starting now, our Outreach Coordinator, Leigh Oppelt, has listed in the bulletin the items in particular need at the programs we are assisting. Right now that list is: Paper Products, Toiletries for the DELCO Food Pantry; Fruit Cups Pudding Cups, Soft Cereal Bars, Single Pack Snacks [i.e. chips, cookies, crackers, etc.] for the Kensington Food Ministry. Any items donated are accepted with thanks, but we will be concentrating on the Items listed in the bulletin.
Episcopal Relief and Development (ERD) Sadly in the News
We've talked a number of times about the fact that Episcopal Relief and Development, our Church's disaster relief agency, often operates in the background, working through local dioceses or other agencies who are established in the area. Our work tragically has been in the news. The hospital in Gaza City bombed a few weeks ago was a hospital founded and funded by the Anglican Churches around the world. We all have a faith family connection to the appalling loss of life there. Remember those killed (and their families) in your prayers and support ERD for rebuilding.
Readers/Intercessors Needed for Worship Services
With the installation of the new camera, audio, Internet, and streaming equipment, worship is no longer a solo by the Priest celebrating. Parishioners are needed to read lessons and lead prayers--two per service [and two for every 7:30 service!]. If you can help, please contact Helen Dunlap or leave a message at the Church Office
"The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us all evermore."
