We honored our graduates yesterday during the 10:00am service! Congratulations to Emma, Zac, Benjamin, Andrew, Ian, Eli, Susannah, and Stephanie! Please continue to keep these outstanding graduates in your prayers as they look forward to new adventures and experiences! May God’s blessings be with you all!

A reminder that in addition to the funeral procession and public visitations to honor Firefighter Mitch Lundgaard, there will also be a prayer vigil at City Park at 7:30pm tonight led by local faith leaders.

Our Youth Choir will be singing tomorrow at the 10:00am service, we will honor Youth Ministry volunteers, and our Youth Minister, Erin, will be the guest preacher for both services. Join us as we celebrate the end of another school year with our Youth Ministry!

As we prepare to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection this morning, please take a moment to pray for the devastation in Sri Lanka. Hundreds died with hundreds more injured in a string of apparent terrorist attacks. O God, on this day we remember and celebrate the resurrection of your Son, our Savior Jesus Christ, may we also hold in our hearts our sisters, brothers, and siblings in Sri Lanka. Give rest to the weary, soothe the suffering, bless the dying, and may those who have died be with you in paradise this day. All this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

One of the beautiful Phil Sealy windows in St. Mary’s Chapel has been recreated and installed! Coventry Glass is working hard on completing the other two. We’re very thankful for everything they’ve done.

Thanks to Intercession Episcopal Church & Beloved Community in Stevens Point for this share. Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem also burned today. Please continue to pray for all impacted by today’s fires.

A statement from the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe regarding the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral earlier today. Please continue to pray.

"When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken... This is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy."

Sound check! Concert begins at 7:30!!
