What’s Happening:
In-person Church Sundays at 10!
We’re back inside for church (where there is air conditioning and NO cidadas!) every Sunday at 10:00! We are still wearing masks inside, but hopefully we’ll be able to see each other’s WHOLE faces again soon! After the service, join us for lemonade, iced tea, and cookies or popsicles outside on our lawn for coffee hour – and yes, we’ll have coffee too! Come see what God is up to in this little corner of God’s Kingdom!

Rector’s Good Friday Sermon
Our rector’s Good Friday sermon was featured on the BBC Radio Manchester Sunday Breakfast show, hosted by Mike Shaft on Sunday, April 25th. Gini tackles systemic racism and the murder of George Floyd while addressing one of the fundamental questions of our faith: What could possibly be good about Good Friday?

Trinity Sunday Sermon – June 7, 2020
This is the Rev. Gini Gerbasi’s first sermon after the events of June 1, 2020 when she was driven off of the patio of St. John’s, Lafayette Square by police. Click here for an article she wrote in the Washington Post about the event.
We are also still praying, and we are here to pray for and with you. During this time of community anxiety and concern, know that our prayers are with you, and that God is in this. If you would like to send in a prayer request, click here, or on the “Prayer Request” image and we will get our prayer team on it! And if you need some help or support, please feel free to call the office, and our phone system will patch you through to one of us.
Engage
We still want to help you engage with the big stories of our faith which can help you find meaning and insight in these stressful times. One of our tools is our podcast, The Irreverends, where we dig into the Bible readings for the coming Sunday. Episodes are about 30 minutes long, and are usually posted on Thursdays. To listen to the Irreverends, click here (or any time you see our logo).
Helping others is another great way to engage with your faith and with the community. St. Theresa of Avila reminds us that God has no hands on earth now but our’s. Click here or the button below to connect with folks who can help connect what you have to offer with what others might need!
