Sunday Night Youth Group from 5:00pm-6:30pm in the Parish Hall.

Youth Group News: We made over $400 at our pancake supper for the Youth Group! That money will go directly to St. Augustine Youth Services which is formerly the St. Augustine Boys Home. We are now collecting some items for them. They are in need of belts ranging in sizes from boys size 8 to a 44". Most sizes being a 10-12. They are collecting batteries in sizes AA and AAA and they would like to have some beach gear like towels, boogie boards, sand pails, sunscreen, etc. All items except the batteries can be gently used. They are also in need of a TV, so if anyone is upgrading, the home would love to have it.

The Men's Group will be sponsoring a food drive for St. Mary's (Springfield) Pantry during the period of Lent. Grocery carts are located outside the church each Sunday for your donated items, or you may bring them to the Altar rail at communion. Your support and generosity is appreciated.

The Ladies of the Field (ECW) will host a "Simple Soup & Salad Supper" during the period of Lent. Beginning Feb 25th starting at 6pm and each Thursday through Maundy Thursday you are invited to join our Parish family in this 'simple' Lenten Evening. Dinner and a Lenten Devotion will be offered, with activities for children during the devotional time. Fr. Michael, Fr. Bob Marsh and Fr. Bob Stuart will be our spiritual leaders along with Lay members of our church. On Maundy Thursday, prior to our service Sue Carmichael of St. Mary's Springfield and a renowned musician will give the devotional and then participate in the music at our evening service. So, please plan on joining us each week for this Lenten program. Reservations are not required but your presence is requested.
