A word we say quite a lot around church is the word amen. It shows up at the end of collects, acclamations, petitions and prayers throughout our liturgies.
As we have for many years, St. Michael’s is collecting new backpacks, school supplies and gift cards for local children in the foster-care system. Please bring items to the church on Sunday, July 23, through Sunday, August 20.
The Portland Pride Parade is almost here! It is being held this coming Sunday, July 16, and St. Michael’s is pulling out all the stops. We have two brand-new banners to display! They are beautiful and will show the world that St. Michael’s cares about and celebrates all people everywhere. We hope that lots of you will come out to walk with us.
On July 4-8, four youth from St. Michael & All Angels attended Episcopal Youth Event (EYE) in Baltimore with others from around the Episcopal Church in Western Oregon and across The Episcopal Church. Rising high school senior Lucy offers this reflection from her experience at #EYE23.
There is a word we churchy types often use – a shorthand, if you will – to describe the forms, patterns, and traditions held together in the ways we worship together. It is the word Liturgy.
It has been a couple of weeks now since our last official “meetup,” and I continue to process all I learned from those whom I encountered, and what I witnessed, and what I heard in those wonderful times together.
