Jazz Vespers emerges as a synthesis of traditions, a blending of an age-old liturgy with the unique musical language we call jazz. The Rev Norm Freeman, Rector of St. George’s Episcopal Church, Laguna Hills, together with Theo Saunders, Putter Smith, and Kendall Kay, will offer musical prayer, praise, and meditation during this one-of-a-kind liturgical experience.
Interested in learning more about the diaconate?
It is an ordained order of ministry which focuses on serving others in need. In December, the Venerable Joanne Leslie, Archdeacon for the Diocese of Los Angeles, came to speak with us about the ministry of deacons and from her conversations with parishioners a small reading group has been formed. If you are interested in learning more about diaconal ministry and joining this reading group, please email the Very Rev. Melissa McCarthy at mmccarthy@tcote.org and let her know of your interest. All are welcome! Our first meeting is this evening at 5:30 p.m.
Weekday Catechesis of the Good Shepherd!
Tuesdays at 3.30pm.
There is now a weekday session of CGS for Level II age children (7-9+) All those in Level II are welcome, as are those in the older Sunday school class who wish to be involved. We meet in Room 2 of Mitchel Hall. Contact Karen James for more information.
EYG (Epiphany Youth Group)
We meet in Bishop’s Hall from 9:00 a.m. – 9:45. Our topic for discussion this morning is “Knowledge Puffs Up, But Love Builds Up.” We will be talking about ego and consider how it “edges God out”. Please come visit our 30-Hour Famine Table after service!
Outreach
We are scheduled to cater on Tuesday, February 14 for the Conejo Free Meals Program. The numbers of clients usually increase as it gets cooler outside, so every donation will help.

If you can donate food or service, please contact me. Thanks! Contact Elizabeth Bryant 805.498.4499.

OWLs, will you be our valentine?
While there are many versions of the origins of Valentine’s Day, the tradition of card giving makes Valentine’s Day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year. Let’s explore the history of these cards that celebrate love!
Valentine historian and collector, Jill Stoliker, plans to show examples of antique Valentines to clarify this fascinating historical timeline for our OWLs group on Thursday, February 9th at noon.
We will also enjoy a hot lunch which will most certainly be followed by a little chocolate.
The charge for lunch will be $10 per person and we ask you to RSVP to Dave Burrows in the church office by Monday, February 6. So gather the special people in your life, and join us on the 9th.
