We are called to be Christ’s loving arms in the world

THIS SUNDAY

ONE SERVICE THIS SUNDAY: 10:30 AM MORNING PRAYER

10:30 AM: This 5th Sunday is a unique Lenten experience: a Morning Prayer service that traces the Book of Common Prayer from its beginnings in the mid 1500s through the most recent updates in 1979 and subsequent supplemental publications. If you enjoy history, Old English, and observing how patterns of worship, and even theology, have shifted through the years, this is the service for you!  Many thanks to Chris Johnson who crafted this service with care and love. And to Kate Johnson who created the artwork above using design elements from the Tutor era.

Our 8:30 service will return next Sunday, April 6th

LENTEN WEDNESDAYS

“Lenten Wednesday Gatherings” are a Saint Anne's tradition. After sharing a simple meal together, there are educational / social gatherings for those who wish to stay. This year we have two gatherings one for adults and one for kids & teens:

How We Learn to Be Brave (For adults and teens who are interested.)
When her sermon at the National Prayer Service went viral, so did the Rt. Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde's book, How We Learn to Be Brave. Join fellow Saint Annians in a group read of this book, with discussion led by the Rev. Bob Furniss.

Lessons from Wicked (For kids and teens)
Want to learn to defy gravity? Let's do it together! Wicked, the popular books that became a sensational Broadway musical that became a movie hit is coming to Saint Anne's on Lenten Wednesdays. Or at least the lessons Wicked teaches are coming. These include: not rushing to judgement about others, honoring differences, seeing the gifts others bring, standing up for the vulnerable in society, remembering you are worthy of respect, dignity, and safety, no matter what. All of that, along with the soundtrack and crafts and games, on Wednesday nights during Lent!
