Slides From ​Our Tending Our Soil Event: Community Picnic June 25th

Epiphany kicked-off its Tending Our Soil (TOS) initiative by holding a Community Picnic on June 25th. The idea of this event was the outcome of a collaboration with the Episcopal Diocese of Washington and the Epiphany Vestry.

​Our objectives were the  post-Pandemic re-engagement of our members in the ministry of the parish and the development of a relationship with our neighbors throughout the community. The slide show below is testimony to the success of this first step.

The Tending Our Soil Ministry leads the Kick-Off of Friday Night Jazz
​
On November 10th, the Tending Our Soil Ministry held a Friday Night Jazz concert featuring David Cole  and Main Street Blues. The concert was part of the initiative of this ministry to cultivate the changed soil of our parish (following the challenges of the Covid Pandemic) so that God's love can grow in our church and community.
Below is a slideshow capturing the joy and fellowship of the Friday Night Jazz session.
