Summer Sunday Schedule
Cathedral of St. John
June 06, 2010 - August 15, 2012
Believe it or not, Summer is just around the corner! With that season come many changes: school is out, vacations begin, outdoor leisure pursuits take our attention. In addition, the Sunday schedule at the Cathedral changes. Beginning on Sunday, June 6, there will be two liturgies on Sunday morning: 8:00 am and 10:00 am. A continental breakfast will be served between the Eucharists, so that people can gather and share time and conversation together. During the summer schedule last year, folks found it a great time to get to know people who went to a different service. This is especially true for the 10:00 am liturgy, bringing together the 9:00 am and 11:00 am congregations. So, remember that the Cathedral Summer Schedule begins on Sunday, June 6, when we have two services only: 8:00 am and 10:00 am.

Back-A-Pack
Cathedral of St. John
July 11, 2010 - August 11, 2010
BACK-A-PACK: Even though summer has barely begun, we are already planning to kick off the Cathedral’s annual Back-A-Pack program. This year, the employees of the Mortgage Finance Authority (our neighbors to the south) have agreed to join us in our efforts to supply fully stocked backpacks to local school children. New also this year is the fact that are asking two local elementary and middle schools to identify students with the greatest needs. We will also continue to distribute backpacks to the children of own Food Pantry clients. It is clear that families are struggling now more than ever. Your donation of a backpack (or the funds to purchase one) would allow a child to experience a happy and productive school year. Bring your filled backpacks by Wednesday, August 11 and please join us on Saturday, August 14 at 8:30 am for their distribution.

What is heaven really like? As Christians, is our future in heaven all that really matters? If you have asked those questions, this is the study for you! Join Fr. Terence Lee for a 6 Week Study of N.T. Wright’s book, Surprised by Hope. This study will begin Thursday, July 22 at 10:30am in Kaseman Hall. You are invited to bring a bag lunch as we view the video teaching by the premier New Testament scholar N.T. Wright. In these six sessions, Wright reveals the full scope of what the scriptures have to say about the world to come and this present world. This study will give participants a clearer vision both of the future and of God’s kingdom at hand today. If you have any questions, please see Fr. Terence Lee.

The Cathedral is hosting the annual BACK-TO-SCHOOL WINGS PARTY on Saturday, August 7. Volunteers of all ages are needed to help with activities and to welcome families to St. John’s. Wings is a ministry dedicated to helping the families, especially the children, of inmates by sharing Christ’s unconditional love. This is done at a Wings Party through music, crafts and games, a Bible story and a shared pizza meal. If you ever attended a Logos event, you will feel right at home and recognize the “parts.” Wings is an interdenominational ministry that started in Albuquerque 15 years ago and is now in use across the country, both in churches and inside prisons. The goal is to “bring families of prisoners and Christian volunteers together to build relationships that transform lives.” For more information contact Ann Edenfield Sweet (291-6412) or Cindy Davis (247-1581). The party starts at 4:00 pm. Volunteers are encouraged to arrive at 2:00 pm to help set up. A brief volunteer orientation will be held before the party starts.
