There will be an Easter Egg Hunt on Easter Day (Sunday, April 20) at 10 a.m. Location will be determined by the weather, either in the Courtyard or in the Canterbury room.

Sunday Lunch will be service on Sunday, April 27th at noon. We will need volunteers to help serve our guests. Please just show up in the Parish Hall after the 10:30 service.
Remember, for some of our guests, this is the only good meal they will get all week.

Every month we have a Parish Potluck and a Sunday Lunch, and we are looking for ministry groups to host these social and outreach events.

For the Sunday Lunch your group would volunteer to serve the meal, clear tables and do the clean up.

For the Parish Potluck the ministry group would select the main course while parishioners bring the side dishes. In the past the main course has been loaded potatoes, taco bar, and sub sandwiches.

Please speak to those in your group and let Crystal know when you would like to help out. Ministry groups can include: Acolytes, Altar Guild, Chalicists, Subdeacons, Greeters, Lectors, Parish Choir, Youth Group, Friend’s Bible Study, The Group Book Study, Eucharistic Visitors, Landscape Committee, Men’s Group Sunday Suppers, Parish Staff, Vestry — or a group of your friends.

Spring Theme: “Embracing Life”

This spring, our Bible lessons follow the theme “Embracing Life.” They offer a series of lessons in two units during Lent and the weeks following that encourage us to consider what we need to let go of and what we need to take on as followers of Jesus.

The St. Philip’s Vestry recently formed a new committee for pastoral care and Jane Ann Bramlett has graciously agreed to chair the committee. During this transition time, the vestry felt it was critical to pay close attention to the needs of our parishioners. If you or someone else in the parish is struggling, is in the hospital, or has a pastoral need, please call the parish office. To avoid Jane Ann getting too many calls or text messages at work, we ask that you call the parish office before calling Jane Ann directly.

To add someone to the prayer list, please contact Crystal in the office 580-226-2191 or Susan Habeck at 580-319-1467.
