Please bring something to share! All are welcome and you don’t have to know how to knit or crochet! We have lefties and righties who can teach you.

Foster Village
Keeping Lent—Ministry, Generosity, and Service
Partnering with Foster Village
For our Lenten in-gathering this year, we are collecting supplies for parents and their
young children that are being served by our ministry partner, Foster Village. All the kits we assembled last year were dispersed so it is time to make more!
We are asked to provide toiletries and supplies to people going through the Parenting in Recovery/Family Drug Treatment Court process of attending rehab, moving into a sober living facility and then transitioning back to independent living.
· Parents are not allowed to work during this process, so they need help with these
necessities.
· Mothers are allowed to keep their young children with them, reducing the trauma
of separation.
· By providing community support for struggling parents, we can
help stabilize families and prevent the young children from needing to be
removed from their families which is traumatic for them.
· We hope to work upstream to improve the odds of better outcomes for these
children who have encountered the child welfare system.
HOW YOU CAN HELP: Like last year, you are being provided an Amazon link to order suggested supplies.

My Friends in Christ,
I am still smiling! The Installation was one of those holy evenings where you could feel the joy humming in the walls. Thank you for the prayers, the planning meetings, the music, the flowers, the readers and crucifer, the bulletins, the reception, and the countless quiet acts of love that made the night beautiful!
And the stole! Oh, the stole. I am still undone by the beauty and care stitched into it. To wear something made by your hands, created with intention and prayer, is a gift beyond words. Every thread feels like a promise, that we are in this together, that ministry here is shared, and that love is something we craft side by side.
An Installation service is a special moment in the life of a church. It’s not just about welcoming a new vicar, it’s about naming who we are and who God is calling us to become together. And, if the other night was any indication, the future of this parish is bright, faithful, and just the right amount of spirited!
I’m especially grateful for the laughter that echoes through our hallways, the deep prayers offered, and the generous hearts that make ministry here not just possible, but so very joyful.
Thank you for showing up. Thank you for serving. Thank you for believing in what God is doing here. I cannot wait to see what we build together!
With deep gratitude (and a very treasured stole),
Christine+
