April 27: Shadows and Light: Historical Christians and U.S. Slavery



From the early colonization of America and well into the nineteenth century, Africans forcibly brought to America and those of African descent enslaved for life were often characterized as less than human. Nonetheless, well-meaning Episcopalians sought fervently to evangelize them. With St. Albans’s project on reparation and repentance in mind, we will read historical materials in order to address a seemingly irreconcilable contradiction: How can one claim to be Christian and also condone enslavement?

May 4: Journeys

 

Journeys is a group for adults who enjoy poetry, theological discussion, and diving into the deep topics of life and faith. The poem being discussed on May 4 is Like Water, by Jeffrey Skinner. All are welcome to join the conversation, which begins with reading a poem several times in a meditative way, then looking at its spiritual themes, before often meandering in a variety of different directions. The poems range from ancient to contemporary, and it is remarkable how poetry can spark rich and reflective discussions. (Reflection Room)

 

BIBLE STUDY

On Wednesdays at 10:00 a.m. the clergy lead a weekly in-person Bible Study in the Reflection Room. Together we read and reflect on the lectionary scripture lessons for the upcoming Sunday. This is a wonderful way to deepen your faith and understanding of the Bible. No RSVPs or advanced reading is needed--just drop in when you can.

DAUGHTERS OF THE KING

The Order of the Daughters of the King is an international community of Episcopal, Anglican, Lutheran (ELCA), and Roman Catholic women who take vows to pray and serve our Lord Jesus Christ every day. Becoming a member professes the intentionality to pray and serve. We model the importance of prayer and service in our parishes and in the larger church.
