Seminary Course May 15-17

Seminary Course at the Church of Our Saviour

If you have an interest in deepening your understanding of the Bible, consider signing up for Cranmer Theological House’s Biblical Theology I course, which will be held on the  campus of the Church of Our Saviour, May 15-17. 

This Biblical Theology course intends to help the student to read the whole Bible as Christian Scripture.  This course traces redemptive historical themes throughout the Old Testament, specifically demonstrating how they find their fulfillment in the Person and Work of Jesus Christ in the New Testament.  Special attention is given to the major stories within the Old Testament and how they fit into the central message of Scripture.

The Course will be taught by the Rt. Rev. Dr. Charles F. Camlin. He holds a PhD from the University of Middlesex, centring on English Reformation controversies around the Apostles’ Creed, as well as a Master of Theology degree from Dallas Theological Seminary and Cranmer Theological House, Texas. He is the Dean of Cranmer Theological House, editor of Cranmer Theological Journal, co-editor of the book Re-formed Catholic Anglicanism, and is a member of the Society of Anglican Theologians. He is married to Brett and they have three children and five grandchildren.

For more information or to sign up, please contact Fr. Jonathan. 

Mission Trip to Cuba

Marcos Dalton’s Short Term Mission Trip to Cuba

Marcos Dalton left for a four-day mission trip to Cuba on Wednesday. The Reformed Episcopal Church (REC) has countless Churches and preaching stations there. Cuba has been impoverished by the communist party’s policies, and the Church, therefore, is heavily reliant on international support to sustain its gospel ministry. Marcos carried a suitcase full of basic supplies such as over-the-counter medications, toiletries, hand tools, water filters, etc., as well as $5,000 cash from the REC Board of Foreign Missions for the support of the clergy and the Church. Please pray for Marcos and the Cuban Church. 

ALMIGHTY God, whose compassions fail not, and whose loving-kindness reacheth unto the world’s end; We give thee humble thanks for opening Cuba to the light of thy truth; for making paths in the deep waters and highways in the desert; and for planting thy Church in all the earth. Grant, we beseech thee, unto us thy servants, and especially Marcos, that with lively faith we may labour abundantly to make known to all men thy blessed gift of eternal life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Sunday School

Confessions of  Augustine of Hippo

This Fall, during the Sunday School Hour (9:15 a.m.) adults will be studying “Confessions” by Augustine of Hippo, and all are welcome and encouraged to participate. To order the book and follow along, please visit HERE .

Ember Days

“The Ember Days are set aside by the Church as a way to mark the passage of seasons through prayer and fasting. As you may suspect, this happens four times a year: in winter, after the feast of St. Lucy; in spring, after Ash Wednesday; in summer, after Pentecost Sunday; and in fall, after Holy Cross Day. An old English rhyme states: “Fasting days and Emberings be / Lent, Whitsun, Holyrood, and Lucie.” These are days for prayer and fasting, specifically prayer for clergy and ordinations, as well as taking care of the needy. They are days to be attentive to the givenness of God’s created order in the passage of the seasons.”  Source.

As you pray for clergy and ordination during the Ember Days and find that you would like to know more about the discernment process for holy orders, please contact Fr. Jonathan or Eric. 

Teaching The Virtues | Sep. 19

Please join us on the evening of September 19th at 6:00 p.m. for a discussion with David Hein. Hein’s newest book, Teaching the Virtues, offers a fresh look at a perennial educational aim—encouraging virtue in the next generation. All are welcome and encouraged to attend.

Faithful Men Concert | Sep. 13

Please join the Church of Our Saviour church family on Saturday, September 13th, at 3:00 p.m. for a concert featuring “The Faithful Men.”

“The Faithful Men group was ecumenically formed in 1998 and celebrated our 25th reunion in August of 2023. In fact, we are members of 7 different Churches.  Today, we consist of 12 men and an accompanist, Orville Bame, and have performed at more than 645 events at approximately 200 venues.  We believe that God is not concerned with the brand name of denomination over your church door, but rather HE is more concerned with the brand name of Christian over your heart.”

All are welcome and encouraged to attend!
