WHAT’S IN A BEGINNING - Advent Reflections
2025-12-14 11:30 - 12:30, 2025-12-21 11:30 - 12:30
WHAT’S IN A BEGINNING
Advent Reflections with Marilyn McEntyre & Rev. Megan
Sundays at 11:30am, Starting November 30 ~ Friendship Center
In this series we’ll reflect on Advent as a time torecognize beginnings: the beginning of Jesus’ life on earth, the Incarnation as beginning of a new age, the beginning of a new liturgical cycle, and the ways we may be invited even now to begin a new thing by the One who makes all things new. This season offers a time to reflect on our own beginnings: how we mark them, how we live in time, what it means to begin again—and again.

Zoom Bible Study - St. Michael's Reads the Gospels
2025-12-16 18:30 - 20:00
St. Michael’s Reads the Gospels
Led by Dawn & Tyson Wright
Starting September 2 at 6:30pm on Zoom
Starting in September, come along as we read the gospels (and the Epistle of James) together. We want to spend time with our Friend Jesus, watching how he acts, listening to what he says, thinking about his teachings and what he shows and tells us about God and His Kingdom.
We’ve created a reading plan, which you can pick up from the ushers desk in the back of the sanctuary or in the office. This reading plan is designed to be done on your own, but it can also be fun to discuss what you are reading with a group. If that sounds interesting to you, you can join our gospel discussion group on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM at our special Bible discussion Zoom meeting.
