Bishop Megan Issues a Pentecost Chalk Challenge

During the COVID-19 weekly leadership call, Bishop Megan laid down a challenge to the whole diocese. While showing a bucket of sidewalk chalk on the screen, she asked that everyone use their own supply, create a piece of sidewalk art, and submit it on social media for Pentecost. #PentecostChalkChallenge

 

What will you draw: maybe a heart, some flowers, perhaps the flame or a dove to symbolize the Holy Spirit? If you don’t feel particularly artsy, why not use your chalk to put your favorite quote on the sidewalk? Then, take a picture and share it with us on social media. Make sure you post it with the hashtags #PentecostChalkChallenge and #NorCalEpiscopal. We also hope you’ll like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram and Twitter. Each of those accounts is linked in the icons below: Click, Follow (or like), and Post!

 

Cards and Well Wishes for Grace

Our seminarian, Grace Flint, just graduated from CDSP and is now living in Chico, where she will soon begin her new position as Assistant Rector at St. John’s.  If you have any cards or well wishes you’d like to send her, please leave them in the church office mail slot by Friday, June 5.  We will be mailing a package to her the following week.
