Social Justice Biographies of the Saints Series - Lucy Randolph Mason
On Sunday May 21 at 11:45 am will be the next presentation of  the Social Justice Biographies of the Saints.  The Rev. Charles Hoffacker will share about Lucy Randolph Mason, 1882-1959, who was a suffragette and roving ambassador for organized labor.  She was known as "Miss Lucy of the CIO."  Come and learn more for what promises to be a lively conversation.

​​Confirmation is Saturday May 20 
On Saturday the 20th of May at a 10:00 am service at Washington National Cathedral, twelve members of St. George's will renew their faith in the service of confirmation and reaffirmation.  Everyone is invited to come to the service at the Cathedral to celebrate this joyous occasion with members of the confirmation class!

Looking for Tech Volunteers for Sunday 10:00 am Service
St. George's is blessed to be able to stream the 10:00 am service on Sundays; this allows those who are not physically present to participate in our worship life.  Volunteers who serve on the Tech Team make this possible, and we offer them our thanks.  We are always looking for more volunteers for this ministry, so if you are willing to join the ranks, please speak to Michael Mangiapane.  Training and support are offered as well as the gratitude of the parish.

Looking for Volunteers to join the Lay Eucharistic Ministers
If you are thinking, "What is a Lay Eucharistic Minister?" - fair question!  LEMs, as they are affectionally called at St. George's, are the parishioners who lead the prayers of the people at the Sunday service and "serve" the wine at Communion. We are looking to add to the ranks of LEMs and invite you to consider joining this ministry.  You don't have to have special qualifications, just a desire to serve, an appreciation for Holy Communion, and a willingness to take part in the liturgy - literally 'the work of the people.'  Training will be offered.  So if you have done this in the past and would like to again, or if you have never served this way before but would like to, speak to Connie+.
