February 6, 2018 by St. George's 2 Comments

Have you ever wished to deepen your relationship with God? To experience a warm friendship with God? Maybe even fall in love with God – again – or for the very first time?

Join our rector, Joe Hensley, and the monks of the Society of St. John the Evangelist for a six-week Lenten journey through prayer and reflection on The Gospel According to John.

Go to meetingjesusinjohn.org to download a reflection journal (or order a hard-copy) and materials and sign up to receive email reflections from the monks. Joe will be leading online and in person conversations at various points along the way, but you can participate at anytime from anywhere.

Contact Joe if you plan to participate or if you would like to join us but cannot access the online materials.

“What’s My Ministry?” Adult Forum for Oct. 1

September 22, 2017 by St. George's 1 Comment

Sunday, Oct. 1, 10 a.m., Sydnor Hall

Stewardship is about giving of time and talent as well as money. This interactive event will give parishioners a chance to share about the ministries they love and inquire about ministries they’d like to know more about.

Imagine sitting around tables in Sydnor Hall with a few other people, talking, networking and sharing. “What’s a ministry that I would like to tell others about?” “What’s a ministry that I would like to know more about?” Then move to a new table group a few minutes later and begin the process again. Over the hour, we will have a chance to interact with lots of different people. If someone is interested in a particular ministry, someone else might say, “hey, you need to talk with…and point them out.” The process will be guided by our stewardship commission. We hope it will be a fun and effective way to share about ministry and discern how to offer your time and talents.

2017 Trinity Institute: Water Justice

February 15, 2017 by St. George's Leave a Comment

TI2017-MainWebBanner

We’re bringing New York to Fredericksburg for an important conversation on water justice.

You’re invited to attend Trinity Institute, an annual conference that takes place in New York City and at partner sites around the country via webcast, including at St. George’s. We’ll develop a deeper appreciation for water as a sacred gift, gain a thorough understanding of the relationship between water justice and climate change, and learn what we can do about water issues of access, pollution, drought, and rising tides.

Join the water justice movement!

Featuring:

Christiana Peppard
Christiana Peppard, Professor of Theology and Author of Just Water

Senator Barbara Boxer

David Toomey, Ph.D. economist and Episcopal priest

WHERE: St. George’s Episcopal Church

WHEN: March 22-24, 2017

  • Wednesday Night, Faulkner Hall, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. — Opening session and keynote with Sen. Barbara Boxer.
     
    Thursday morning: 9 a.m. to 12:45 p.m., Sydnor Hall. Session 1: “Water: Commons or Commodity?”
    The United Nations has declared water as a human right. Global markets regard it as a commodity. Can a fresh approach to market capitalism serve the common good, or does the world need a new and different system of exchange?
     
    Thursday afternoon, 2 p.m. to 5:45 p.m., Sydnor Hall. Session 2: The Global and the Local
    As Hurricane Sandy demonstrated, New York City is vulnerable to sea rise and surge. Climate change is making matters worse. Speakers will examine New York’s issues as a model of how to examine local problems in light of global realities.
     
    Friday morning, 9 a.m. to 12:45 p.m., Sydnor Hall. Session 3: “What Churches Are Doing to Make a Difference”
    People of faith are working for water justice all over the world. Speakers will talk in practical terms about the challenges and achievements, and we will examine what strategies lead to projects that truly improve people’s lives.
     
    Friday afternoon, 2 p.m. to 5:45 p.m., Sydnor Hall. Session 4: “Being Agents of Change”
    As the conference closes, our work begins in earnest. Our speaker is a leading climate scientist who knows both the data on climate change and its impact and also the solutions that lead her to say “Together, we can fix this.”

COST: $10 (attend all or any part of the conference; please don’t let the cost deter you from coming)

CONTACT: For more information about attending the conference via St. George’s, contact the Rev. Bob Miller (540-373-4133).
