Witness Wednesdays | Wednesdays, 12:15pm
Gather weekly as a public sign of Christ's love in a time of great hardship. Episcopalians and friends will meet each Wednesday at noon in Federal Plaza on Dearborn, between Jackson and Adams (near the big red Calder sculpture), to pray for justice, mercy, and the dignity of all people. Being communal prayer, no signs or other materials are necessary, just a willingness to stand in solidarity with those who are hurting. All are welcome.
Antiracism Committee Monthly Meeting
The COS Antiracism Committee meets monthly on the first Wednesday at 6:30pm. They were tasked with identifying, disrupting and dismantling racism within ourselves, as a congregation, and in the community at large.
These meetings are open to the congregation and guests are welcome to join using this Zoom link.
Eastertide Adult Forum | Sundays, 9am
What does our faith and our Baptismal Covenant call us to in the work of racial justice?
This four-week Adult Forum invites us into a deeper exploration of the Gospel through the lens of justice, truth-telling, and love of neighbor. Rooted in the promises we make in baptism we will engage in honest conversation and shared learning about race, history, and our call as Christians.
April 12 - May 10 (except April 19)
Catechesis Pentecost Presentation | May 17
On Sunday, May 17, at 9am, our own catechists will lead a Pentecost presentation. Children will experience it as a great learning time, and because it’s Pentecost (well, a week early), there will be lots of candle lighting and snuffing to keep interest levels high.
Adults will experience it as a guided meditation on the gifts of the spirit that scripture describes for us to claim and nurture. All ages are welcome, we’ll supply the candles.
This will be our last atrium session of the academic year.
