The National Brotherhood of St. Andrew has appointed April 27th as the National Service Day, when chapters nationwide are encouraged to perform a service project in their communities.
The Dallas Assembly has targeted our workday at Camp All Saints. All Chapters (Holy Nativity included) are to join there for a day of outdoor trail preparation and general make-ready for the camps summer season. Bring gloves and protective clothing and tools if available, but the camp does have most tools that would be needed.
It would be great to have a nice contingent of people from our Parish. Anyone interested in participating should contact Robby Gerber, Brian Prestemon, or John Phipps. We will need to let the camp directors know the numbers who will be attending (so they can feed us lunch) by April 15.
This is an opportunity for us to invite our neighbors, co-workers, church members and church youth to join us in this worthwhile workday.
A good crowd was in attendance for the start of our new Brotherhood of St. Andrew Study – Kyle Idleman’s – Gods at War. Jeff Wright led the group as we discussed what our idols might be by looking at these questions:
What’s our biggest disappointment?
Where does our time & money go?
What do we worry about?
When we hurt, where do we go for comfort?
What makes us mad (angry)?
What do we dream of, or, what are we passionate about?
We looked at two passages of scripture; Judges2:11-15 and Joshua 24. We were encouraged to follow the daily sessions for lesson 1 and write in our journal as part of our study.
During our business meeting, a motion was made by Jeff Wright to support two of our own for Kairos (Tony Gerber & Ghahre Pascale). This was unanimously approved.
Our next meeting will be 4/13/13. All men are invited, both in and out of the parish.
The Brotherhood of St. Andrew meeting was held on February 9, 2012.
Jeff Wright introduced our new study “Gods of War” by Kyle Idleman. This study is different in that there is a lot independent study and introspection through use of a log/work book as part of the study. Some discussion was had on how we would address the use of the book.
The Brotherhood continues to work towards building membership and seeks the active participation from all the men of the parish, including the Spanish congregation. We welcome all for Bible study, service and brotherhood with the othe men of the parish.
