We gather tomorrow June 7 at 9AM for worship followed by two opportunities for adult formation. Rev. Stefi Baiju will meet with folks interested in Confirmation or Reception when Bishop Paula E. Clark visits St. Lawrence on July 26. The other forum is one of two planned as part of our journey during Kristin's sabbatical time. This week Deborah DeManno leads a discussion about being a pilgrim and pilgrimage as a spiritual practice. Coming next week Elise and Michael will share their experiences of walking the Camino de Santiago last year.

If you cannot join us for worship in person, you can join via live stream right here on Facebook or on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/-p5l3c/streams

Scenes from last Sunday and our celebratory sendoff of Kristin, Kyle, and Fiona as they leave for sabbatical this summer. Our worship was contemplative using Taize music, Kristin brought her backpack to be included in our sending blessing, and then we had a grand St. Lawrence festive coffee hour. Buena Sabática! Buen Camino!

Preaching on her last Sunday with St. Lawrence before leaving on a 12 week sabbatical, Kristin draws on 2 Corinthians 13:11-13, which is a farewell speech. Kristin suggests we follow St. Paul's advice as we use this summer to Restore, to put Christ at the center returning to that center that as our Foundation, live in Peace and the God of Love and Peace will be with us.

This Sunday Mary 31 is Trinity Sunday and we would love for you to join us on this special day. Following our 9AM worship service of Eucharist and Taize music, we will celebrate our rector Kristin Saylor as she begins her sabbatical and summer travel. Why a Taizé service you ask? Because, part of Kristin’s sabbatical time includes her return (with her family) to the Taizé ecumenical community in Burgandy, France. So, we will have a taste of what worship is like at Taizé.

If you cannot join us in person at 125 W. Church St. you can find the livestream of our worship here on FB or on our YouTube streaming channel here: https://www.youtube.com/-p5l3c

St. Lawrence is blessed with two multilingual clergy, Kristin Saylor and Stefi Baiju. At our May 24 worship celebration of the Feast of Pentecost, they were inspired by The Spirit to offer the Eucharistic Prayer in 9 languages: English, Spanish, German, French Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi.

A small taste of what is described in Acts 2:1-21.

On this "birthday of the Church" Rev. Stefi reminds us that we never stand alone at the font where we are continually reminded who we are in Christ. On Pentecost and every day, we are renewed at the font, fed at the table, and filled with The Spirit.
