Regathering News
Outdoor 7:30 Service: On Sunday, June 6, 2021 we will begin to
hold an outdoor Eucharist. We will continue to wear masks
and maintain social distancing. All are welcome.
Indoor Regathering: We are working with St. Luke's and Calvary to
provide a date when we will regather in person. As you know we have
grown into a shared community and we are prayerfully discerning
how we continue in together in community even as we plan in the
near future to worship in our own spaces.

We are excited to announce that
our Congregational Leadership Initiative (CLI) through the
Episcopal Church Foundation (ECF) - St. George's Oral History -

Remembering Mott School
Do you remember the Mott School
in LeDroit Park? Our group (from New Community Church in Shaw)
would like to collect oral histories about the school -- people
who went to the school, taught at the school, or who simply
remember the Mott School's place in the neighborhood (maybe you have
a parent who went there and have memories of what they told you
about going there?). The stories of LeDroit Park and its history
of segregation is so important for us to remember--please help us
to record these stories for future generations! Please contact
Aiyana Adams at MottOralHistory@gmail.com. (Funded by HumanitiesDC and supported by the DC
Oral History Collaborative.)

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.
