Join us in worship as we celebrate the Eucharist on the tenth Sunday after Pentecost.
We are excited to announce that, with help from the Diocesan Executive Office, Brendon Neilson, and our own Rev. Dr. John Thatamanil, we have a last-minute, but exceptional, guest joining us for our Sunday Eucharist at 10am this coming Sunday, Dr Christiana Zenner.
Dr Zenner is Associate Professor of Theology, Science, and Ethics, Affiliated Faculty in Environmental Studies and American Studies and Associate Chair for Undergraduate Studies, Dept. of Theology at Fordham University - Lincoln Center and she is a well-regarded and thoughtful Eco-Theologian her latest book being Just Water: Theology, Ethics, and Fresh Water Crises (rev. ed.). Christiana will share a poetic presentation in place of our sermon this Sunday, then will be ‘in conversation’ in the Church, following coffee, with John Thatamanil.
We will be gathering in-person (masks are required, especially when we are singing), and on Zoom with the service streamed from St. John's. The service will also be livestreamed and will be available to watch below, or by clicking on the Livestreams button above.
The order of service is available to download below.
