INFANCY NARRATIVES: “Infant Holy, Infant Lowly.”
You are invited to join us starting TODAY from 11:00am to 12:00pm, during the four Wednesdays of Advent for the virtual Adult Bible class. We will take a comparative and critical look at the main characters and themes which make up the “Infancy Narratives” or birth stories, as recorded in the gospels of Matthew and Luke.

ECW OUTREACH FOR INFANT CRISIS CENTER
Because of Covid 19, the annual ECW outreach to the Infant Crisis Center will look a bit different this year. We will NOT be asking for gently used or new clothing, toys or baby equipment this year. Instead we are requesting donations of the following new items: Baby bottles, Sippy cups, Baby wipes, Baby liquid wash, Baby lotion, Pacifiers, Diapers size newborn to stage 6
There will be a bucket with a lid at the front door of the church to collect these items. Our staff will be checking in to make sure the items are moved inside throughout the day.  If you prefer to make a donation by check, please just make your check to Saint Augustine of Canterbury and in the memo add Infant Crisis. Check out our wish list on Amazon for anyone who would like ideas on what to order:

It all began on a dark and mysterious night....Join the friends and family of the SAC community, Friday, December 18, at 7:00pm via Zoom, for a fun evening of teamwork and critical thinking to solve 4 mysterious codes using ciphers, morse code, cryptograms, and other puzzles. The codes will reveal secrets behind symbols and interesting facts about the story of Jesus' birth. Who will be the first team, partners or person to crack the final code and discover the light? Will it be you? This is an intergenerational activity for ALL ages, adults, children, families, couples, singles - all are welcome and encouraged to participate.
