Don't forget! Fall back Saturday night with end of daylight saving time

It's that time of year again! Daylight saving time ends as clocks "fall back" one hour. The official time change is at 2 AM Sunday, but for people that turn in earlier, go ahead and set your clocks back before going to bed. Your smartphone and computer should automatically adjust. However, you’ll need to manually change the clocks on your car radio, oven, alarm clock and the other standalone clocks around your home.

Parish Leadership Workshop, November 4

The 2020 Annual Parish Celebration is tentatively scheduled for Sunday, January 31. At that time, the three members who will be rotating off the Vestry will be replaced with new parishioners. A Leadership Workshop will be held on Wednesday, November 4 at 7 PM (most likely via Zoom) in order to provide information to those who might be interested in learning more about what it is like to serve in a leadership position on the Vestry, or as the parish representative to the Southern Maryland Regional Council or the Diocesan Convention. Please give prayerful thought to a call to serve. For additional information, or to register for the workshop, please contact the Rev. John Keydel at jkeydel@gmail.com.
