Bring your Baby Jesus in to be Blessed on December 3
If you would like to bring in the baby Jesus from your home nativity scene to be blessed, we will be blessing them on Sunday, December 3, the first Sunday of Advent. 

Pick Up a Book to Pray With During Advent!
Advent starts next Sunday, December 3 and you are invited to participate in our Advent Devotional reading. The book we are using is called Holy is His Name: Daily Devotions for Advent by Elis Hiu-Mei Lui. Anybody who would like a book is welcome take one; they are available for pick up now. Along with the book itself you'll find a packet of material for further prayer and reflection. Use it as it suits you. You are welcome to pray with the book on your own, or gather on Mondays December 4, December 11, December 18 and January 8 at 7:00 pm on Zoom for a time of prayers and reflection as a group. See Connie+ or Terry Doyle with any questions.

The St. Nicolas Party is December 2!
St. George's annual St. Nicolas party will be held on Saturday, December 2 from 4:00 - 7:00 pm. All children and their adults are invited to come decorate the parish tree, engage in crafts, food and fun, and see if Bishop St. Nicolas makes an appearance. There are sign-up sheets to let us know how many can attend as well as volunteers needed to bring food and help with setup and cleanup. All are invited to bring a food donation for the Bowie Food Pantry and/or bring children's hats, scarves, and mittens for the international students of Prince George's County schools.
