UPCOMING EVENTS…..

Tuesday, February 11th – Priming The Pump at Sharky’s at 7:30  

What is Prime the Pump?  This is akin to the popular international movements of “Theology on Tap” and “Pub Theology” where people in and beyond the church gather to explore topics where faith and life intersect. Priming the Pump is designed for people who want to explore their faith while in a social and supportive environment. Each month tackles a different topic, led by one or two lay and/or clergy leaders. This month’s topic is: “Loving Through Deeper Listening”.

SECOND SUNDAY – Adult group meets every 2nd Sunday in the Library if not otherwise mentioned, from 4-6pm.     (Next meeting February 9th )

Finding Hope

Dear Saints, The theme for our Advent worship this month is HOPE. This seems like a logical theme for Advent but the fact of them matter is, Advent can be a very difficult time of year and for many, HOPE is hard to muster. It may be that we are feeling a little blue because of the waning daylight. It may be because of the recent loss of loved one, an illness that just won’t quit or a painful family relationship, the loss of a job, the constant struggle to make ends meet.
