This Week at St. Stephen's

Have you visited our website recently?  The Parish Calendar and 2011 Lenten Lectionary are now available there:  http://www.stst.org/.  When you look at the calendar, move your cursor over a particular event to get a pop-up box with details. 

David Henderson will be preaching at both the 7:45 and 10:00 services this Sunday.  As he moves on to his new adventure in Seattle, please wish him the best of everything.  David has been a quiet. cheerful and deep force for our little band and will be missed.

Adult Inquiry at 9:00 on Sunday completes the discussion of Bach’s St. John Passion. Last week the topic was John and his book.  This week the topic is Bach and his read of it.

The Little Red Tabernacle Wagon aka “Red Tab,” was blessed and made its maiden roll out through the park blocks to Pioneer Square last Sunday. It will be departing from the Peace Chant sculpture every Sunday from now on at completion of the Communion in the Park service which begins at 1:30 pm. 

St. Stephen’s drivers made their first official pick-up at the Oregon Food Bank this week.  Besides regular staples, the new foragers came back with coconut milk, pomegranate juice and individual yogurt packs.

Thanks to Don Davidson for his yard work on the church perimeter plants.  His landscaping included trimming, edging, pruning and general clean-up. Bring on the spring daffodils! Don is a friend of our clergy and offered his advice and work as a gift to the church.

And finally thanks to Faye Tayler for the beautiful design work on our 2011 Parish Directory which is now available at coffee hour.  Printing of the booklet was a gift of Martin and Lily Sudarma, owners of the Copyman print shop in our neighborhood at 11th and Jefferson.  Please stop in to Copyman for all your printing needs.  They are fast, offer competitive prices and are friends of St. Stephen’s.
Hope everyone has a great week!  See you in church!
