Here is a prayer from the ACNA 2019 Prayer Book. Heavenly Father, you sent your Son among us to proclaim the kingdom of God … [Read more…]
The time is changing this Saturday, October 31 (Halloween). You should turn your clocks back by one hour (“fall back”). That way you will be sure to be on time for our Sunday liturgy at 10:00 am.
