A big thanks to everyone for wearing your nametags these past few months. It's one of those little things we can do in a growing parish to stay personal and friendly. Please find time each week to meet a new friend and help them feel welcome at St. Anne's. Perhaps you have noticed the smiley face stickers on some nametags. These help us recognize those who are new within the last few months.
Hand write one and leave it at the welcome table.
As Jackie explains it, the Episcopal Church is divided into nine geographical provinces. The Diocese of Virginia, along with 12 other dioceses, make up Province 3. Provinces make recommendations to the dioceses on implementing programs that come out of the General Convention. Jackie will be attending the annual meeting of provincial deputies and reporting back to the executive board of the diocese with recommendations for implementing these programs. The Robertsons bring the love of Christ to their neighbors in this community and overseas through their food relief, housing assistance, and medical care ministries.
