The program continues to flourish and offers our parish a meaningful and visible way to contribute to people in need every month of the year. As part of our Lenten season, the Outreach Commission is arranging for the display of Black and Blue , a quilt made in Goffstown Women's Prison. Each panel of the quilt was designed and made by an inmate of the prison and is a testament to lives that have been marked by abuse, humiliation, sorrow, and pain. Alice Roberts, an Episcopal priest and chaplain at the prison, organized the creation of the quilt and will speak with us about her special ministry there and the women who created this unusual artwork. Interfaith Refugee Resettlement Committee St. Thomas has joined with Our Savior Lutheran Church and a number of other churches in the Upper Valley to sponsor a refugee family.
All interested persons are welcome.
