Lenten Practice - Beyond Words: 15 Ways of Doing Prayer
During Lent this year, we are exploring forms of prayer using the book “Beyond Words: 15 Ways of Doing Prayer" by Kirsten Johnson Ingram.  In short but hearty reflections, she invites us to widen our ideas of prayer, considering how walking a labyrinth, planting seeds, dancing, cooking, and feasting can all be powerful prayer practices. Join us in reimagining how we embody prayer this Lenten season. Copies of the book are available at church, and for those more electronically inclined, an eBook version is available for download. On Monday evenings from 7:00 - 8:15 pm from February 27- March 27, we will be gathering weekly on zoom to reflect together and deepen our practice of prayer beyond words.  Those who can’t (or don’t want to) join the weekly gathering are still welcome to use the Beyond Words book to support their Lenten prayer practice. If you are interested in learning more, speak to Karen Horrocks, Jocelyn Tidwell or Terry Doyle who will be coordinating the weekly group meetings.  You can also use the sign-up sheet that can be found on the bulletin board at church so that you receive weekly emails for updates and the zoom link for participating in the program.

Diaper Collection through February
One of the families in the Gaywood Food Program welcomed a new baby over the Christmas break. To assist the family with what we know can be a significant expense, we have been collecting disposable diapers, sizes 1 & 2, through the month of February. This Sunday is the last day of the collection.  Diapers can be left near the food pantry bins outside the main office. Thank you for your generous support of the families at Gaywood!

​Marietta House Museum Event February 15
 
In 2023 St. George’s celebrates 150 years as a community of faith in Prince George’s County.  Part of our sesquicentennial observance this year is to explore the history of the land St. George’s was built on and labor involved not just in the building of St. George’s but also our immediate area.  To that end, we share this information about an event of interest at the Marietta House Museum in Glenn Dale.   
 
On Wednesday, February 15, 6:30pm – 8:00pm, meet Africanist and historian, Dr. Kathryn Barrett-Gaines, who will speak about the legacies of African culture at Marietta House, a former tobacco plantation where generations of African descendants lived and labored. Dr. Barrett-Gaines is the Museum's visiting scholar and a history professor from the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. Dr. Barrett-Gaines will present cultural and historical evidence of African culture at 19th century Marietta House and plantation and Swahili and other African language ties to the history of the house. This hybrid talk will be held in-person at Marietta House Museum and online via Microsoft Teams.  $5/person; ages 12 & under are free. Please register on Parks Direct on https://tinyurl.com/yj833re6, for information MariettaHouse@pgparks.com, or call 301-464-5291.
