Tuesdays in Lent — Saints’ Suppers

Jan 30th, 2008 by Fr. Paul | 0

soupJoin us Tuesday evenings in Lent for community eucharist, soup supper, and learning. Over the course of six Tuesdays, beginning February 12th from 6-8pm, those interested are invited to join together as a community of faith to nourish each other and to be nourished by the eucharist and the stories from the lives of the saints. Each evening will also include a simple soup supper. There is no cost for this event.

The basic outline for the program is as follows (saints to be selected by presenters):

Week 1: February 12th — early church (50’s - early 300’s)
Week 2: February 19th — imperial church (early 300’s - early 400’s)
Week 3: February 26th — missionary church (400’s - 900’s)
Week 4: March 4th — medieval church (1000’s - 1400’s)
Week 5: March 11th — reforming church (1500’s - 1700’s)
Week 6: March 18th — modern church (1800’s - 2000’s)

communion of saintsDuring this season in which we reground ourselves in our shared experience as Christians over the centuries, it makes good sense to hear from the lives of those who’ve gone before and to ask of them: who were they? where were they? what was happening in their time and place? what was their unique contribution to the church/world? what do they have to say to us today?

The weeks don’t necessarily build on each other, so come to as many as you’re able, even if you’re not able to make them all.
