Wednesday Night series during Lent, starting at 7 PM | The Big Quiet @ St. Peter's: An Introduction to Silence In the Rectory, 346 West 20th Street We'll be exploring the practice of silence and how to quiet our hearts and minds when there is so much internal and external noise in our lives and in our world. Beginners are especially welcome! You are welcome to come a little early at 6:30 to hang out and get settled.

Thursday Night | Bible Study @ 7:30 PM near Columbus Circle Join us for the study of the Acts of the Apostles as we gather around the Word of God together and reflect on what it means to follow Jesus today as a community filled with the Holy Spirit and the love of God in our world. Contact Michelle Howard at michelle.wolfe.howard@gmail.com.
Sundays After Service | Spiritual Formation @ 11:30 AM in the Rectory This Lent, our rallying cry as a church is to DECLUTTER, physically and spiritually. We want to follow Jesus wholeheartedly and freely, and let go of those things that hold us back and encumber us. Grab a cup of coffee and join us on the 2nd floor of the Rectory for these opportunities for growth and conversation:
March 8-29: Being Christian: Baptism, Bible, Eucharist, Prayer Book Club We're going back to the basics with this simple, profound (and short!) book by Rowan Williams, the former Archbishop of Canterbury.

Even if you don't read the book, all are welcome for coffee and conversation about these essentials of being a Christian.
March 8: Baptism
March 15: Bible
March 22: Eucharist
March 29: Prayer
