What's Up This Week (1/23-29)

 Our Bishop's Visit on Sunday was a delight!
On Sunday, Bishop Mark Beckwith visited St. Agnes' to celebrate and preach, meet with the children, encourage the congregation to pray deeply and reach out in God's love to others, give a forum, and meet with the Vestry.

Fun highlights:  Jordan Newbury holding the crozier (The Bishop had to make a "baa...baa" noise before they remembered Bo Peep), and Jocelyn Dilkes wearing the miter, slightly outsized and slippy for her.

Most moving:  congregational response to the Bishop's challenge to think about and pray about our individual and congregational mission(s) in the world.
