Then Betsy Shelley, Treasurer, led a review of the 2016 Income and Expenses and then presented the 2017 budget for discusssion and acceptance. The nominating committee presented the slate for 2017 and a new Vestry was voted in.
For a little fun amid all the serious business, our rector, Rebekah Hatch showed us how to apply temporary tattoos.
At our festival eucharist for Christmas, our young people brought forward the creche figures for Mary, Joseph, the ChristChild, shepherds and the wise men. The the rest of the congregation brought forward a star upon which was written their hopes and prayers.
We ended with Silent Night sung by candlelight.
Images of our parish community from 2024
We try to document our time together to remember everyone in our community.
While 2024 was the year our beloved rector Rebecca was called to serve at the diocese, it is also the year we embarked on the next stage in the cycle of life for our parish.
This set of images provides a glimpse of who we are and what it's like to celebrate with us in Simsbury CT.
