Weekly Words of Wellness Scott Stoner The Living Compass Wellness Initiative June 26, 2020 Knowing When to Shift Gears Daily bike rides are my primary stress reliever these days. The combination of physical activity, mixed with being outside in the fresh air, is a balm for my COVID-tired spirit. One of the things I especially love about road biking is that it requires complete concentration. My mind cannot wander or worry when I am fully focused on […]

Why Advocate now?Dear James,We have heard from many of you over the past week – sharing your stories of protesting, expressing outrage at the injustices that continue, and askin Why Advocate now? We have heard from many of you over the past week – sharing your stories of protesting, expressing outrage at the injustices that continue, and asking what you can do. There are, of course, many ways to show up in this moment: you can join protesters peacefully marching for an end to police brutality; you can educate yourself about how to be an anti-racist; you can pray […]
The deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery have justly stirred our nation to outrage. And that outrage has turned violent. But as one the statements below will remind us, the violence born of outrage was not the first act of violence…

May 26, 2020. Dear Pastors, Deacons, and Congregations, In response to President Trump’s statement last Friday that all churches who wish should re-open immediately for worship, I would like to say that I continue to recommend the same steps that I communicated to you last week. Namely, I recommend that each pastor should gather a leadership team that carefully thinks through all of the necessities and implications for safely re-opening a church facility for in-person gatherings. This plan should conform to the state and local regulations in your area and should be based on the most current medical advice.I […]

A Live recording from www.Facebook.com/StChristopherOlympia/Live on May 7, 2020.
A small ministry at the home of a StC member now spreads love and care across the U.S.
At St. Christopher’s we us several sources for our worship and print them up in the bulletin. Mostly though, we use the Book of Common Prayer (BCP) of the Episcopal Church and Evangelical Lutheran Worship (ELW) of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. It’s a good idea to have one or both of these at home for personal use and for times when you might gather in small groups at home or elsewhere. Having your own will also be handy in the near future as social distancing restrictions are lessened. We will not be able to share hymnals, prayerbooks, or […]
