Advent Study
Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m.
Beginning December 2, 2020.
During this season
of Advent, we will move through the first two chapters of
the Gospel of Luke. Luke’s Gospel provides a pattern
for understanding how we can live the Way of Love as individuals, as families and friends, as
a community and out in the world. Beginning on Wednesday,
December 2, please join the Rev. Jenkins and the Rev. Rolle
as we take this journey together.
Week 1 (12/2): The Annunciation: Saying “Yes” to the
Journey as an Individual (Luke 1:26-38)
Week 2 (12/9): Mary and Elizabeth: Journeying with Family
and Friends (Luke 1:39-56)
Week 3 (12/16): Birth of John the Baptist: Journeying with
Community (Luke 1:57-80)
Week 4 (12/23): Birth of Jesus: Journeying in the World
(Luke 2:1-20)

St. George's Episcopal Church
Women take up a collection twice a year to support the United
Thank Offering (UTO), a ministry of The Episcopal Church for the
mission of the whole church. Our fall collection is timed with
the holiday of Thanksgiving as a reflection of our personal daily
spiritual discipline of gratitude. ECW encourages St. George
parishioners to notice the good things that happen each day, give
thanks to God for those blessings and make an offering for each
blessing to UTO. Please join us and make a donation to the parish
office, payable to ECW with UTO on the memo line. Thank you for
your generosity and have a blessed Thanksgiving!

Kwanzaa Kitchen: Janis has
been able to come up with a unique way in which we will continue
to feed the hungry in this important ministry. It involves fewer
than 6 people and we will pack the food to go and place it
outside on tables for people to take their breakfast with them.
We will continue this way until we are able to gather groups
together again.
