A Study of St. Mark’s Gospel - A short study on the Gospel of St. Mark will be offered on two consecutive Thursdays, Nov 13th and 20th from 11:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. There will be a reading and reflection and a bowl of soup for lunch. This will be excellent preparation to begin hearing the way St. Mark tells the story of Jesus. Mark will be the main Gospel heard in our worship for the next liturgical year beginning in Advent. Our student intern, Victoria Scott, will be leading this study. Plan to join us if you can. Anglican Diocese of Ottawa—Creation Matters Dialogue: Fossil Fuel Divestment and Re-investment—According to Archbishop Desmond Tutu, “people of conscience need to break their ties with corporations financing the injustice of climate change.” Should we, as individuals and as a church, join the fossil fuel divestment movement, and re-invest in other ways? Join Creation Matters, the environmental subcommittee of the Diocese of Ottawa, with invited speakers/ panelists, for presentations and discussion on fossil fuel divestment and re-investment for individuals and the church. When: 2 - 5 pm, Saturday 15 November 2014 at St. Matthew’s. "Parsons, Poets and Playwrights: Literary Figures who molded the Anglican tradition" Come join us for a new “Molding the Anglican Tradition” series. It will be held on three consecutive Tuesday evenings – November 18th, November 25th and December 2nd so mark your calendars. We will be focussing on Anglican literary figures representing both poetry and prose. Come and hear Archbishop Curtis (November 18th) on two early Anglican literary figures - Thomas Ken and George Herbert. On November 25th, Hazel Atkins will lead us in an exploration of the modern Anglican poet T.S. Eliot. The series will finish with the Rev. Prof. Kevin Flynn on modern Anglican prose writers such as C.S. Lewis and P.D. James. We’ll have a simple supper (soup, bread, cheese) starting at 6:15pm each evening and the talk will start at 7:00pm. We plan to be finished by 8:00pm. There will be a sign up sheet at the back of the church (offers to contribute soup, bread or cheese for an evening gratefully accepted!). Come to one, two or all three evenings - they are an excellent opportunity for fellowship and to learn more about our Anglican tradition.
