Talent Show Wrap-Up with Photos

February 12, 2026

A huge thank-you to everyone involved in the Cabaret, Cabernet, & Clavier talent show! The event raised over $1000 towards the Capital Campaign projects, and ideas are already spinning for next year’s show!

This event featured 10 musical and spoken word acts from several of our talented youth, parishioners, and community members. Richard Morris wore several hats as event coordinator and organizer, emcee, and literally wore two outfits! So many volunteers were involved in the setup, decorations, lights, sound, ticket sales, concessions sales, and bartending that helped make the entire evening memorable for all involved, especially the audience members.

Scrooge! Wrap-up and photos

December 28, 2025

No “Bah Humbugs” here! Thanks to an extraordinary team of 32 volunteers—including a talented cast of 15 bringing the characters to life, a visionary director and musical director, and a dedicated crew of 15 handling tech and front-of-house duties—our holiday production of Scrooge! was a success! With generous donations of time, costumes, talent, and wonderful camaraderie, these volunteers shared Charles Dickens’ timeless tale of redemption through repentance and forgiveness, celebrating the true joy of giving through charity and goodwill. The show delighted approximately 260 patrons across the holiday season. We’re filled with gratitude for everyone involved and excited for the new year ahead with fresh shows on the horizon!

Knit, Crochet, & Pray

November 29, 2025

Wrapping oneself in a prayer shawl is a way of focusing one’s eyes and heart on God to feel his presence and loving embrace. Prayer scarves and squares are also a way of keeping focus on God as a reminder of God’s presence. This rewarding ministry brings joy, comfort, hope and God’s love to the church, the larger community and the world. The Knit, Crochet & Pray group meets on Thursdays at 10:00 a.m. in the library, located off of the parish hall. All are welcome!

** We maintain a pattern book, also in the library! **

See below resources, all are suggestions and starting points — you are completely free to follow your own patterns!
