Sunday Forums in Lent

posted Mar 14, 2012 11:56 AM by Linda Heaney

Rector Kym Lucas will lead conversations loosely based on Brian McLaren's book Naked Spirituality: A Life with God in 12 Simple Words. It's a great read - and potential grounding for a season of reflection and reorientation. Join us in the parlor at 10:15 for 45 minutes of discussion, whether you've read the book or not! If you want to pick up the book, it's widely available in book stores or at Amazon.com. Questions? Contact Kym, klucas@stmargaretsdc.org or 202-232-2995.

Saturday, March 10th-10:00 AM. Church Clean-up / Fix-up Day

posted Feb 22, 2012 9:06 AM by Linda Heaney

    We will hold a church clean-up/fix-up day. We plan to take this opportunity to clear out clutter and make our spaces more usable and welcoming to all. If you are involved in any ministries that store items in the church, please plan to come to the church that day, label and neatly stow your items, or communicate with the co-chairs. Otherwise, items in long-term storage that are perceived to be clutter could end up missing. We plan to start at 10:00am and will have morning refreshments. Lunch will be provided for all volunteers to have a time of fellowship together. We want to be able to plan for provisions and priority tasks. Please let co-chairs John McCall (jmccall@olg.com, 202-462-4652) or Paige Cottingham Streater (pcottinghamstreater@yahoo.com, 202-641-6196) know of your ideas and desires for the day, as well as your dietary restrictions. We hope to see you there!
