We’re thankful for the report that Jim and Misty are recovering well from COVID and are getting back into the swing of things and their normal routine. Sickness of any kind can be disruptive to life and means of income, and COVID carries it’s own set of challenges. So we’re thankful for this report.

We’re also thankful this week to have a few of the Sensings with us. Before they moved away from the area they were members of St. Mark and a big part of the life and work of the church here and we’re happy to worship with them once again this week.

Speaking of the life of the church, the Drapers will be hosting their monthly fellowship and hymn sing for March on the 26th. This event starts with food and general fellowship at 5:30. You’re welcome to bring a dish to share, or just come and enjoy the food provided. The singing begins around 7:00 with a mixture of psalms put to tune from various sources, and the great hymns of the faith from the church’s rich musical history. And occasionally, there’s also a chant pulled from the Sunday liturgy.

And just a bit of housekeeping so we can be good guests at TCA: remember to keep any food or drink in the large room we worship in, or in the foyer just outside the room. Classrooms should not have food in them and should generally be considered off-limits. This will help us keep TCA in good shape.
