Sunday Worship June 13, 2021
Please join us for our service of Holy Eucharist on Sunday June 13 at 10:00 am. Our readings are 1 Samuel 15:34-16:13, 2 Corinthians 5:6-10, 14-17, and Mark 4:26-34. Rev. Chris Easthill will be presiding and Robert Vukovic preaching. The bulletin is here.
You can join our worship services either in church, or live online (via Facebook Live). You should be able to go straight to the Livestream using this link (even if you do not have a Facebook account – just ignore any attempts to make you register)! Should that not work, please go to our Facebook page here and scroll down until you find the Livestream, which we will start at 9.45 am (for 10.00 am) and 4.45 pm (for 5.00 pm).
We currently only have seating for up to 45 people (including the choral ensemble and altar party). So please only come, if you have registered. If you are coming to the service, please download the bulletin to your phone or tablet, if you can, as we are printing fewer paper bulletins to avoid wastage.
Please also note that a medical mask (surgical, FFP2 or DIN KN95/N95) must now be worn while attending church. Homemade textile masks and scarves etc. are no longer acceptable.
If you want to include prayers for yourself or another during the Prayers of the People at any of our services, please send me an email

UTO Ingathering:
UTO Ingathering: The United Thank Offering (UTO) Spring Ingathering will be held on Sunday, 27 June 2021. This is a way for each person to express tangible THANKS to God for blessings, UNITED with other prayers and money, that reach out to the worldwide family. The UTO is a personal and family devotional program of the Episcopal Church. It is the sum of our daily thanks for the blessings in our everyday lives—for good weather, happy times, a job opportunity, and unexpected visits—there are so many things for which we can be thankful. We can be thankful to God for blessings and take action by putting coins in our Blue Box. We will forward our collected offering to the UTO offices in New York City where it becomes part of a fund within the Episcopal Church which supports mission projects all over the world. You will find the UTO Blue Boxes, Blue Envelopes and brochures on the tract rack at the back of the church. Please remember to bring your Blue Box (or, Blue Envelope) to church with you on 27 June and if you can’t be at church, please transfer the amount you have put aside to our account with “UTO” as a reference. (Kay Hollis, UTO Coordinator)
