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.

Please mark your calendars for Sunday, December 11^th.  ReThreaded will be joining us after the liturgy to talk about their mission and set up a “pop up” shop in our Gathering Room.  You’ll be able to purchase hand-made items and help ReThreaded further their mission.  Here’s a link to their website where you can learn more about this social entrepreneurship and how your purchase helps individuals in need:  www.rethreaded.com.   They also sell and carry items from Sari Bari, a similar organization in India where the founder of ReThreaded got her start  (www.saribari.com).  You can look at both websites and if you see something you would like them to have at the pop up shop, please email me with that information.  For instance, several people have asked that they bring some of the Sari Bari throws, which they sell in the ReThreaded store, but not on the ReThreaded Website.  

St. Philip Neri weekly Bible Study Group named ‘The Pilot Light Scripture Study and Prayer Group’ because we will focus on prayer and community building, as well as Scripture.  The meetings will reflect our Liturgy in that after reading and sharing in God’s Word, we will pray together as a community for individuals and the world, as well as share in Communion. 

The week can be long from Sunday to Sunday; let’s keep our Pilot Light of Love burning for Christ all week long! The Pilot Light group will meet on Wednesdays, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.  All are welcome! Invite your friends!

CHRISTMAS EVE COLLECTION

Our Christmas Eve collection goes to helping several inner city single mothers this year.  As is our tradition, the collection does not go to the church but to needy people we have the privilege to support.

If you will not be at the Christmas Eve liturgy but want to contribute, simply mark your check or donation “Christmas Eve” so we can include it in the collection.

Thank you for giving some children a Christmas morning.
