I want to get to know each of you personally and to listen to your hopes and dreams for the church. No doubt, this will take some time, but I want to “jump start” the process by inviting you to a Holy Conversation with me. Upcoming Events - Church Event Sun, 29 Jun 2008 08:34:05 +0100 http://www.hcumc.org/adult/news/st.-gregorys-abbey.html Retreat to St. Gregory's Abbey on August 1-5. The monastery is located in Shawnee, Oklahoma.Experience Monastic Life - Adult Retreat to St. Gregory’s Abbey In the busyness of life, do you ever wish for moments of peace? Is your soul parched – to the point where you’d like to put aside all burdens and just spend a few days drinking in the sacred and reconnect with God? I found the replenishment I needed two years ago at a Benedictine Abbey and the monks who live there on the grounds of St. Gregory’s University in Shawnee, Oklahoma. They live their life based on the Rule of St. Benedict where being part of a Christian community means sharing everything you have, worshiping God in all that you do and giving of yourself to the betterment of the community. I’ve longed to return and bring others with me to experience the peace, sacredness and stillness I found there. Adults from Holy Covenant are invited to journey with me this summer and spend 5 days in a retreat at the Abbey. Dates are August 1-5, 2008. Aug 1-3 will be led by Father Charles Buckley who’s been a monk at St. Gregory’s for 38 years; I will lead the remainder of the retreat on Aug 3-5.

School Starts Early for Metrocrest Social Services (MSS)Though school districts are starting the school year later, preparations begin early at MSS to be sure that children of eligible MSS clients will head off to the first day of classes as well-prepared as every other student in the building. The material and volunteer support of area businesses, faith groups, and individuals will surely make this dream a reality again this August when MSS will fit over 1,000 students with new shoes and provide 1,100 students with backpacks stuffed with school supplies.
