THE CHURCH OF THE REDEEMER – SARASOTA, FLORIDA The Fourth Sunday in Lent (Yr B RCL) 15 March 2015 WELCOME VISITORS! VISITORS The Church of the Redeemer is delighted to have you with us today to share in our mission to know, love, worship and obey our Lord Jesus Christ. Whether this is your first, second, or third visit, please help us welcome you by wearing a visitor name tag found inside the parish brochure in the pew racks in front of you. We also invite you to join us for coffee and Christian fellowship after the services on the veranda (weather permitting) or inside Gillespie Hall. Look for the Welcome Table in Gillespie Hall. As you exit the front of the church, simply follow the pathway to your right, past our Rose Garden, and around to the veranda and Gillespie Hall. If you would like to receive more information about our services, ministries, and mission, or to be placed on our mailing list, please fill out the Visitor Card attached to the visitor name tag, and place it in the offering plate, or hand it to an usher, and be sure to come to the Welcome Table in Gillespie Hall. We hope you will choose to return to the Church of the Redeemer and invite you to call on us at any time (955.4263) or visit our website (www.redeemersarasota.org). ANNOUNCEMENTS AND INFORMATION Today . . . At the Rector’s Class we will hear a presentation about Day Of Hope, to be held at Redeemer on 1 August. Bridge to the Word, a small group adult Sunday School class, meets today in Room 207 above Gillespie Hall, 10:10–10:40 AM. Baptism Preparation meets today at 10:15 AM in the Halton Chapel. First Communion Classes meet today for children K and up in the Kindergarten classroom during Sunday School time. Today, the 4th Sunday in Lent, is known as “Refreshment Sunday” and “Mothering Sunday.” We are now more than halfway through Lent, and on this day there is a lightening of the penitential mood in Lent – hence the name “Refreshment.” In England it is known as “Mothering Sunday” because people typically return to their home parishes. The flowers in the sanctuary reflect this mid-Lent Sunday. Solemn Evensong will be sung today at 5:15 in the church. The Service is Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis in F Major by George Dyson, and the anthem is Vinea Electa, No. II, of Motets for the Season of Lent by Francis Poulenc. The deadline for Easter flowers has been changed. Tomorrow, Monday, 16 March, is the deadline for donations for Easter flowers. Envelopes are available in the narthex. Make checks payable to “Church of the Redeemer” marked “Easter Altar Flowers.” Parish Office (941.955.4263) 222 South Palm Ave. Sarasota, FL 34236 email: COR@redeemersarasota.org website: www.redeemersarasota.org Sunday School meets today – 2 & 3 yr olds through 12th grade, 10:10AM.
