News & Events
Antiracism Committee Monthly Meeting
The COS Antiracism Committee meets monthly on their work with the parish to become The Beloved Community. They were tasked with identifying, disrupting and dismantling racism within ourselves, as a congregation, and in the community at large. COS is working to create a courageous space, take responsibility, and respect the ability of those who cannot participate.
These meetings are open to the congregation and guests are welcome to join using this Zoom link.
How to Avoid the Dangers of Biblical Study
Even though the Bible is foundational to our faith, it is also dangerous, and in the hands of some, it is rife for potential and intentional misinterpretation. Over five Sundays during Lent, The Rev. Richard Wendel, PhD, will lead a seminar which will provide a necessary and secure starting perspective before the Bible is even opened. Join us Sundays, January 18 - February 15 at 9am to learn how reputable biblical scholars approach scripture.
Morning Glories Bible Study | Tuesdays, 7:30am
Morning Glories meets weekly in the Rectory. This simple bible study group follows the lectionary readings for Sunday and is open to all.
Morning Prayer & Bible Study |
Wednesdays, 10am
Join us each Wednesday morning at 10am in the Rectory and on Zoom* as we gather for Morning Prayer. These weekly discussions include prayer, reflection, and discussion around the upcoming Sunday scripture readings.
All are welcome.
