Praying the Psalms with St Augustine: Tuesday Evenings 7.45pm - 9pm, or Wednesday 10.45am - noon The psalms are the prayers of Christ, of the Church, of Christians individually. That is, at least, how we use them in our services. Yet, sometimes the language of the psalms seems strange and difficult, even if we all have our favourites. These meetings will give us a chance to see how the Psalms have been prayed and read in the Church. We will use St Augustine as our guide. The goal will be to be able to pray and understand the psalms better, to see how they can be a guide to us, and to see how they guide public worship also. When: Tuesday evenings from 7:45 to 9 pm (after HC), or Wednesday from 10:45 to noon (after HC). Please come to the session that best suits your schedule.

Friday March 19th: Liturgy Study Group
Have you ever wondered why particular items of clothing and various movements are used in the chancel during the Sunday liturgy? Do you understand the symbolism and significance of what is taking place? As a conclusion to our recent home study on the prayer book, Fr. Mercer will discuss aspects of the liturgy in a 90 minute session held here at St George's on Friday March 19th. We will meet at the front of the church at 7.30pm. Come with any questions you may have! Please note the change in venue. If you would like more information on the group, please contact Alex at Alexander.Easton@dal.ca.
