SUNDAY, Feb. 12, is Formation Sunday. Sunday School classes for kids 3-5 and 6-10 meet at 10am. We begin worship together in the nave, then children and teachers are blessed and sent forth to their lessons.
- Adult Formation at 9:00 a.m.: Vision and Visibility: A New Website. We are beginning work on overhauling the St. Dunstan’s website in the hope of making it more useful for members of our community, a better reflection of our parish, and a better invitation for people to join in our life and work. You are invited to come to a discussion about our web site, past, present, and future. No technical knowledge is required, just your own experience (or lack of experience) with the St. Dunstan’s web site. You can help us understand the different ways our members make use of technology, what categories we use when we think about the life of the church, and what kinds of information we would like to share about our church. Talk to Phil Hassett with questions or ideas.
