Liturgy Service
Dec 23 @ 10:30 am – 12:00 pm

 We gather every Sunday Liturgy. The word liturgy means “work, or work of the people,” and it is work of the people, not for the people (which is the distinction between liturgy and magic, since magic is directed for some outcome for people).  Liturgy is different than a service which often is entertainment at its worst, or passively watching and listening to what is going on at church.  Liturgy, rather, is something we do together.

Sunday, January 27th is Food Sunday! @ St Philip Neri Ecumenical Church
Jan 27 @ 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm

This Sunday, January 27th is Food Sunday.  Our theme is “Soups” so bring your favorite soups, breads, crackers, accompaniments, etc. (or just grab some leftovers) to share with your church family.  Great food, great friends….

Speaking of friends, Food Sunday is also designated as “Welcome Sunday.”  It’s the perfect Sunday to bring a friend to Church.  If you do, John will spend a little more time during the Liturgy to explain the rituals, symbols and meanings of the Liturgy.  After the liturgy, they’ll get to share in a wonderful meal with great friends.

Food Sunday is also the day you’re encouraged to bring in your food bank donations for the Catholic Charities food bank, your Shopping Cart Ministry items for Taylor Care Center, as well as your Animal Ministry donations (we accept blankets, toys, cat litter, leashes, bowls, towels, and pet food – First Coast No More Homeless Pets provides pet food to needy families that would not otherwise be able to afford to feed their pets).  The collection boxes and wagon are located in the back of the front room to the right of the restroom door.

And don’t forget about the YARN DRIVE – Prayer Caps and Shawls for Kids with Cancer.

Laura Lewis takes delight in knitting caps and shawls for children with cancer, and donates these textiles to St. Philip Neri’s Outreach/Healing Prayer Ministry.  The caps and shawls are prayed over, blessed, anointed with holy oil and then delivered to Nemours Children’s Hospital.  To help support Laura’s continuous endeavor and defray some of her expenses, St. Philip Neri collects your donated yarns.  Skeins of baby soft, cotton-blend yarn (no wool please) in assorted colors are needed.  Drop your donation in the YARN box located in the back of the church.   All collected skeins of yarn will be donated to Laura so we can continue this joint effort in our mission to provide threads of comfort for kids with cancer.

Thank you all for your continued generosity!
