Lunch Bunch welcomes parishioners and friends alike to meet for fellowship on the second Wednesday of each month.

St Francis has graciously granted us a little wiggle room, so we have moved his feast to Sunday, October 15. We will have our first blessing of animals since the pandemic. It should be a fun service, and a great time to invite friends and neighbors who love their critters. Please leash, crate, and prepare animals appropriately, taking into account your fellow church members, not all of whom are pet people. Rev. Anna looks forward to meeting your creatures great and small, whether in the flesh or in a photo (even the reptiles, as long as they maintain a little social distance!).
