SUMMARY:Lent Madness
DESCRIPTION:It’s time to play Lent Madness—a basketball-inspired holy competition to see which of 32 saints earns the coveted Golden Halo. St. Peter’s parishioners are invited to play along! Join us on Zoom at 7:30 p.m. Thursday\, February 27\, to get started. \nThe format is straightforward: 32 saints are placed into a tournament-like single elimination bracket. Each pairing remains open for a set period of time for participants to vote for their favorite saint. We narrow the field to 16\, then 8\, all the way to the final two in the Championship where one saint is crowned the winner. By the time Holy Week comes along\, you’ll see how God works in the lives of ordinary people to shine the light of Christ’s love in a world in need of hope.For more information and to follow along\, visit www.lentmadness.org. \nThe first round of voting begins on March 6 (aka Ash Thursday). There will be a large copy of the bracket in the church so everyone can track their status. Please join the fun! \nJoin us on Zoom:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/85002518007?pwd=gjH3NfiynVAYlnHZOHADmRgsW1etUy.1\nMeeting ID: 850 0251 8007; Passcode: 717275 \n

SUMMARY:Ashes-to-Go
DESCRIPTION:The Rev. Sarah Hedgis-Kligerman will distribute ashes from 8-9 a.m. on Wednesday\, March 5\, at Washington Square Park. \nSt. Peter’s Episcopal Church\, located at Third and Pine Streets in Philadelphia\, is participating in the nationwide movement called “Ashes to Go” (www.AshesToGo.org). \nIn the Christian tradition\, Ash Wednesday marks the start of the holy season of Lent\, a time for reflection and repentance in preparation for the celebration of Easter.

If you are interested in joining the conversation\, please sign up! \nAbout “God Didn’t Make Us to Hate Us“\nA first-of-its-kind devotional for the disenchanted\, disillusioned\, and deconstructedCountless Christians are deconstructing the fear-based faith they were handed\, but many don’t want to give up on God—they want to love and be loved by Jesus without hateful or abusive theology. If you’re one of these believers\, this feminist\, anti-racist\, LGBTQ-affirming devotional will take you on a journey of spiritual reenchantment. Featuring 40 devotions on God’s radical and liberating salvation\, it’s here to help you heal your church hurt\, restore your sense of community\, and embrace Jesus’s heart-healing forgiveness. Move beyond rigid religion and reconnect with the undeniable truth that predates and will outlive all the toxic theology in the world: God made you to love you. \nTNT discipleship groups are small groups of folks in their 20s/30s who want to explore faith\, theology\, and day-to-day living. We gather on Zoom for an informal yet intentional space to do that together.
