Re-Engaging for Fall
At this time of year we seem to start things up again—and our Calendar of Events is certainly full!  On top of these special events, don’t forget about out weekly parish and Care Home Bible studies and worship     services!  There may also be other events coming up within your home congregation, be sure to keep up to date so you don’t miss out!



 
PWRDF Resources
Has your parish ordered theirs for the year?  This year there’s a new format of Advent and Lenten    reflections—they’re free but need to be ordered!


 
Messy Church
A new family-based way to      worship together.  Includes    social time, worship, craft, and meal. Free will offering. Co-hosted by Anglican and Lutheran churches; held at Grace Lutheran Church (Russell), each third Thursday of the month.
