From Celtic Evensong to Community Service: Life at Saint Dunstan’s This Week

In the Life of the Parish

Here is a look at what is happening in the life of our parish in the days ahead.

Lent invites us to slow down, deepen our life of prayer, and turn outward in love toward our neighbors. In the weeks ahead there are many opportunities to gather for worship, grow in faith, and serve together in our community.

A Look Back at the Week

Last weekend we gathered for a beautiful Celtic Evensong, followed by a lively reception. Rooted in ancient Christian prayer and music, the service offered a peaceful space for reflection during this Lenten season. It was an incredible evening of worship, music, and fellowship. Special thanks to everyone who helped make the service and reception possible. Watch this space for announcements about future special services and events.

Earlier this week we also gathered for a Fellowship Meetup at Cabin Boys Brewery, enjoying good conversation, new connections, and good beer together.

Our next Fellowship Meetup will be April 7 at Mother Road Market. More details will be shared soon.
