Saturday Eucharist Winter Time Change!


Please note that our regular Saturday Eucharist will make its regular seasonal time change this month. 

On the second Saturday, November 12, this service will move back, an hour earlier, to its winter start time of 4:00 p.m.  (We move to 5:00 p.m. in March.)

Also please note, that this service—already “different” in its quieter, simpler, meditative approach (as well as its use of alternative texts)—will become even more so on November 26, for the four Saturday/Sundays of Advent.  Many of the prayers and texts we will be using are taken from The New Zealand Prayer Book (which our Bishop allows). We’ll also be introducing a bit of Taize chant for the congregation to sing at the Offertory.

We already of a strong group of regular attendees for this service. 
If you haven’t come yet give it a try. 

It’s also an ideal service to which to invite a friend. 

Maybe this Advent is just the time to do so!
