November 21 - Reign of Christ Sunday
Yes Christmas is coming! Join us this Sunday as we observe Reign of Christ Sunday and the Liturgical calendar. We will also have the 'blessing of the quilts'!
A warm welcome to all joining us for this service, whether in person or on line, on November 21st for Reign of Christ Sunday. This week we will observe the importance of this day within the context of the liturgical calendar. Our service will also include the 'blessing of the quilts' - an annual tradition at Glebe St James in which baby quilts made over the past year will be dedicated and then gifted to St. Mary's Home in Ottawa.
Our Minister, the Rev. Teresa Burnett-Cole will lead the service. The scriptures will be read by Barb Coyle and will include Luke 2:1-7, Isaiah 60:1-6, Luke 4:1-13, Luke 24:1-12, and Luke 9:12-17. James Caswell, Minister of Music, will be joined by choir members, Pam Fitch, Celine G, Jessica Simpson, Karen Walker, Jim Louter, Liz E, and Crystal Maitland to lead us in music and song.
Our service bulletin with hymns, texts and announcements is linked here.
