  O God of steadfast love, at the wedding in Cana your Son Jesus turned water into wine, delighting all who were there. Transform our hearts by your Spirit, that we may use our varied gifts to show forth the light of your love as one body in Christ. Amen. 

Hi All,

As you likely know, our stalwart office volunteer June is in medical recovery.  Rita Yeo and Joe Sparling have been gracious enough to help out with some of the office systems that we need to cover - thank you Rita and Joe!  However, we could still use some help Thursday mornings to create some more standard office hours. If you would be open to being a welcoming presence Thursday mornings in the church office, dealing with a few emails, phone calls, and office mail, the whole St. A's community would be most grateful.

Please let me know.

 Come and enjoy a relaxing time of conversation as we reflect together on excerpts from Barbara Brown Taylor ‘s best selling book, “Learning to Walk in the Dark”.  With her characteristic charm, theological depth and literary wisdom, Taylor guides us through a spirituality of the nighttime, teaching us how to find our footing in times of uncertainty and giving us strength and hope to face the challenging moments that come our way.

So bring your coffee and gather around the (virtual) kitchen table or perhaps just settle into a comfortable chair as we enjoy each other’s company, ponder a bit of scripture, and discuss Taylor’s insights. Please email Anne Wightman: wildrosie7@gmail.com for more information and/or to receive the handout for our second “Gathering” of 2022. 

"Doors" open at 7:45pm, process begins at 8pm-9pm.  The zoom stays on until 9:30pm latest for those who want to chat more.

Sharing in circle allows us both opportunity to listen, and when our turn arrives, to speak.

A topic is raised each Wednesday in the realms of Faith, Justice, Spirituality, and Action in the Christian tradition that we are invited to reflect on and share if we wish.

Rev. Jonathan usually facilitates the circle.  Please contact him for the zoom access: rector@staugustinesedmonton.com
