Lent 2019

Lent

Lent is a season of engaging with practices that help us be more responsive to God. We have planned a number opportunities to help you make your Lent a Holy season.

  • Join us over Lent for a six-week journey of reflection on time produced by the Anglican community of the Society of St. John the Evangelist. Rev. Stephen is leading a group meeting on this series throughout Lent, beginning on Monday evening March 11th, 7:30 PM at the church. You can go tohttps://www.ssje.org/time/ to subscribe to receive the series’ daily video meditations from the SSJE Brothers directly in your inbox.

 

  • Morning Prayer on Thursdays at 10am in the Sanctuary

 

  • Children’s Worship – Each Sunday at 10:30AM, children from JK-Grade 9 will focus on growing in their understanding of God. Through exploration of lenten practices, through a variety of activities, children are given an opportunity to develop their faith.

St. Philip’s is also participating in the Markham-Unionville Ministerial’s Sunday Evening Lenten Series. There will be a service for each Sunday in Lent, hosted by a different congregation. St. Philip’s will be hosting an Evensong service on Sunday, April 7 at 7:00 pm.

GriefShare

Hello, Thank you for visiting GriefShare (GS)

SPOTH will be holding a 4th Grief Share program beginning Wednesday, March 18, 2020 from 6:30-8:30 PM. Theme based weekly videos followed by participant discussion and support as folks are comfortable make up each session. The participant Workbook outlines each session for note-taking and provides opportunity for daily reflection between sessions.

Everyone living with the death of a cherished person is welcome to Grief Share. We recommend an interval of 4-6 months from the time of the death before attending.

Those of different or no faith lives have found the video content to be insightful and the group support comforting and healing.

Please come as you are. If you have questions at all, just call or email me when you can.
