Quietside Festival is coming up on July 14. Please bring your Baskets and Silent Auction items to the office by Tuesday so they can be readied for the festival. Bring pies and other baked goods next. Tents and tables will be put in place on Thursday around 4:00. Any and all hands are welcome to help with this task. And remember you can march in the Flamingo Parade with the St. John Samba Band behind our first ever float!  Practice is 3:30-4:30 pm the next two Thursdays at St. John's.

Confirmation Class will be held on Tuesdays, starting July 10th, 2:30-3:30 in the Common Room. We will be exploring the book Episcopal Questions, Episcopal Answers, Exploring Christian Faith. All are invited to join in the conversation. See Mother Kathleen for more information.

Meditation on Tuesdays at 4:00 at St. John's. Please join us for 30 minutes of shared silence and "prayer of the heart," an ancient meditative practice of the Christian tradition. All are welcome! We meditate sitting on chairs, though if you prefer to sit on the floor, feel free to bring a mat or cushion. If you are new to meditation, have questions or concerns, or would like more information, please contact Mother Kathleen.
