• This Sunday,  August 14, our service of Morning Prayer will be led by Elizbeth McEwen, with a homily by Lorrie Scime.    Music will be led by our church musician, Michael Pennington.  Our service begins at 10 a.m., in-person or by Zoom.  Please join us.

• Moosestock  VII is August 20 at 7 pm, off the dock at 220 Lake Raponda Road in Wilmington (Holly & Joe Fortner's).  Please join us by boat, kayak, canoe, floaty thing, or on the lawn behind the dock, for the seventh annual evening of music and fun.  If you'd like more information, contact Joe by clicking here.  

• Several members of St. Mary's are spearheading work developing and planning for the Deerfield Valley Pilgrimage Walk, scheduled for September 17-18, 2022.  Our team is helping to  organize an annual ecumenical, inter-religious pilgrimage walk along woodland trails beginning in Wilmington, and leading over two days to the Our Lady of Ephesus House in Jamaica, through which both religious and secular participants can be part of a combination of adventure, experience of nature, and spiritual transformation.  You can learn more at the Deerfield Valley Pilgrimage website, which you can access here.  

• Our next Red Door Concert is September 24, starting at 7 p.m. "Harvest Moon" will be a concert of "moon tunes" of various genres, and all proceeds will benefit Voices of Hope.  Please plan to join us, and bring your neighbors and friends for what promises to be a fun evening of music.

• Thank you to  everyone who joined us this past Saturday, July 23, for the second  Red Door Concert of this season, "Kings of the Keys."  And thank you especially to Michael Pennington, Ned Wilson, Rich Mattern, and Mike Kelly for sharing your talents, and offering us an entertaining and varied evening of music.  A collage from the evening, courtesy of Lincoln, can be found by clicking here.​

• As part of our outreach, we have opened to all our Little Food Pantry, located in the parking lot near the lower entrance to our building.  There, you will find food and staples for those who may be in need.  If you need help, please visit, and also contact us.  We are blessed to be able to help those in our community.  

• St. Mary's is in a leadership transition, looking to join with a one-third time priest, either independently or on a shared basis with another parish.  If you, or someone you know, is interested in becoming part of our engaged, active community of faith, to be part of a church that offers comfort, support, peace, and joy to our parishioners and our community, and to help us continue to grow, please reach out to our Search Committee.  You can reach us through Committee Chair Peter Johnson and our Senior Warden, Dick Ward,  by clicking on their names.  

• As part of our outreach, two of our musical Parishioners (Holly & Joe Fortner) are visiting seniors and assisted living homes to offer musical programs of standards, oldies, and other tunes.  If you know of others who could use such an uplift, please email Joe at fortner1@comcast.net; he and Holly will be happy to talk about what they can do for you and those for whom you are.

• Thank you to everyone who participates in our services.  Our family comes together through your efforts and in our services.

• We want to thank the Rev. Canon Nicholas Porter for seven remarkable years as our "Interim Pastor."  St. Mary’s will miss his guidance, wisdom, humor, warmth, and friendship, and we pray that his future is filled with joy, peace, love, and purpose.  Thank you, Nicholas. 

• Thank you John Terauds for all you've done for us, for your friendship and love, and for continuing to be part of our Parish (albeit remotely) over these months.
