meets EACH Friday morning at 7:00 a.m. in the Parish House for a one-hour free-ranging
discussion. All men are invited to participate.
- The Gathering of Women, which
meets on the second Wednesday of each month at 7:15 p.m., would like to extend
a special invitation to those of you who are not comfortable driving at night. We're
missing out on your company and have a band of willing chauffeurs to provide
transportation. Please contact Susan Schriver at 610-935-5480 for more
information or to arrange a ride. Please join us!
- Eat your way to fellowship through Foyers dinners! Foyers dinners are small
groups of parishioners, typically about 6-8, who meet periodically for dinner in order
to get to know one another. Hosting of (potluck and relaxed) dinners rotates among
members of the group. This is a great way for new members to get acquainted with
"old-timers" in the parish, and for attendees of the various services to get to know
one another. To sign up, email Jay Joyce
or call him at 610-695-2798.
- Join us on Wednesdays at noon for Brown Bag Bible Study in the Parish Hall. Bring your
favorite translation of the Bible, if you have one (if not, we'll find a Bible for you), and together we'll unpack the scriptures for the following Sunday. Don't forget your bag lunch (drinks provided)!
Newcomers are always welcome!
- Every Thursday morning at 10:30, we gather for Intercessory Prayer in the Parish Hall, integrating the day's readings with the St. Peter's prayer list. We pray for special needs both in the Great Valley and the world, for our outreach efforts, for those who have requested our prayers, for the departed, and, with thanksgiving, for births, birthdays, and anniversaries. Join us in prayer that works - your presence really will make a difference!
