This Sunday we will read three short poems by Nikita Gill from her book of poetry, Where Hope Comes From: Poems of Resilience, Healing, and Light. The poems speak of love and hope amid challenges. Group participants will discuss light coming from darkness, hope from despair, and life from death.
This concludes our time of reflecting theologically on literary pieces.
Adult Confirmation/Reception Preparation will begin on Sunday, February 18th.

During each monthly Ladies Lunch gathering, they collect $1 per person. Alana Woods, who coordinates the lunch, reports that the group collected a total of $100.57. They chose to donate those funds to West Avenue Compassion which is located just down the road at San Antonio First Church on West Avenue.
When told about the donation, longtime St George member and WAC volunteer Linda Canas said, “This is amazing! I was sitting here thinking about the need.” She recalled having received a text that 547 families had been served in one week. “It wasn’t so long ago,” she said, “that we were serving closer to 400 [families].”
“This is just so wonderful!”
